Southeast of Mendoza is the Uco Valley, one of the most promising subappellations within this Argentinean province. Situated 3,940 feet above the sea level, our La Esperanza vineyard has well-drained soils. Its climate is influenced by its high altitude and the constant cold breezes from the Andes Range, resulting in big differences between night and day temperatures.

Palabras de Gonzalo Bertelsen:
"Dadas las excelentes condiciones climáticas, especialmente la ausencia de lluvias, una sanidad de uvas espectacular y adecuadas temperaturas, permitieron cosechar nuestras uvas Malbec Reserva en Alto Valle de Uco, la tercera y cuarta semana de abril, con un color profundo, taninos maduros, redondos y dulces, con una gran concentración de sabores y aromas complejos. Un año de guarda en Roble y tanque le dio la madurez que buscábamos antes de ponerlo en el mercado".
