✨ Technical Specifications
Trivento's Reserve Malbec is a vibrant tribute to the dramatic terroir of Mendoza, shaped by the legendary three winds that sweep through the foothills of the Andes: the icy Polar, the fierce and warming Zonda, and the humid Sudestada. Grown in high-altitude vineyards where intense sunlight thickens the grape skins and cool night temperatures preserve natural acidity, this estate-grown Malbec captures the quintessential spirit of Argentine winemaking. After careful harvesting, the wine undergoes a traditional fermentation followed by approximately six months of aging in French oak barrels. This gentle wood contact imparts delicate notes of vanilla and toasted coconut without overshadowing the wine's core of lush plum, dark cherry, and soft, velvety tannins.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1996 as the Argentine subsidiary of Chilean wine powerhouse Viña Concha y Toro, Bodega Trivento takes its name from the three Andean winds that shape Mendoza's viticultural landscape: the arid, warming Zonda, the cooling oceanic Sudestada, and the frigid winter Polar. Headquartered in Maipú, Trivento manages extensive vineyard holdings spanning premier subregions of the Uco Valley and Luján de Cuyo. The estate's viticulture thrives in semi-arid, high-altitude alluvial terroirs characterized by dramatic diurnal temperature swings and well-draining stony-loam soils. Under head winemaker Germán Di Cesare, Trivento emphasizes aromatic precision, tension, and freshness over overt extraction or heavy oak. Achieving B Corp certification for its environmental and social stewardship, the winery balances massive commercial scale with technical innovation, exemplified by its pioneering Reserve White Malbec—a blanc de noirs made via rapid early-harvest pressing—alongside its acclaimed, structured benchmark, the Golden Reserve Malbec.
