Mendoza | Argentina

Mendoza is Argentina’s premier wine region, responsible for over 70% of national production and home to some of the highest vineyards in the world.
While Malbec remains its flagship, Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, and Pinot Noir are now key players, especially in the Uco Valley. Its strength lies in a unique terroir—high altitude, intense sunlight, wide diurnal shifts, and mineral-rich alluvial soils shaped by Andes snowmelt. Top wines from elevations above 1,200 meters may carry the unofficial yet respected Gran Altura Superior designation, signaling exceptional purity and precision.
