✨ Technical Specifications
Trivento's Tribu Torrontes is a vibrant expression of Argentina's signature white grape, crafted to capture the youthful and energetic spirit of Mendoza's high-altitude terroir. The name 'Tribu' (Tribe) honors the collective passion of the hands that tend the vines. Torrontes itself is a unique South American creation, a natural cross of Muscat of Alexandria and Criolla Chica that thrives under the intense Andean sun. To preserve its delicate, highly aromatic profile of white flowers, citrus, and peach, the wine is fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks with no oak contact, resulting in a crisp, refreshing, and highly aromatic white wine.
🍾 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.
