Description

“In the heights of the Uco Valley, where the wind runs freely and the sun caresses the vineyards generously, an ancient legend resonates. It is said that, once upon a time, a great lady, broken by the grief of a lost love, threw herself from the cliffs of the Cordón del Plata. As she fell, her arms transformed into wings and her tears into bunches of grapes: thus was born the Argentine Trumpeter, a mythical being who, in his flight, left his soul imprinted on the earth and in the wine”

Trumpeter doesn’t come from a single estate. Its strength lies in its versatility, in the freedom to select the best of each vintage from different areas of the Uco Valley. Vineyards range between 1,000 and 1,200 meters above sea level, poor alluvial soils rich in expression, purifying winds, and a dry climate that produces healthy, ripe grapes. Everything comes together to produce expressive, fruity wines with an intense color and a marked presence of new wood, thanks to the use of barrels that replaced traditional casks.

Notes

TASTING NOTES: With a vibrant, bright red color and violet glints, it hints at an intense aromatic profile of plums and spices like cinnamon and cardamom. Its aging in French oak gives it firm yet round tannins, enhancing its juicy and expressive character.
FOOD PAIRING: A wine well-defined by the varietal character, it is ideal for pairing roasts, lamb, empanadas, and oven-baked dishes with vegetables and potatoes.
