NEWS & EVENTS FROM ARGENTINA
Our acclaimed winemaker, Santiago Achaval, has been busy monitoring veraison and the ripening process in the Úco Valley and Maipù in greater Mendoza.
“Up to now we’ve had what could be described as almost perfect weather in all our vineyards,” says Santiago. “We had good fruit set…bunches are loose and aerated. We had a hot summer, but not so hot as to provoke sunburn. So now we’re in the last final stretch of ripening. We’ve dropped fruit to concentrate flavors and aromas."
We expect to crush approximately 25 tons of Malbec and 16 tons of Syrah this year, along with smaller amounts of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Viognier, Roussanne, Marsanne and Sauvignon Blanc. We’re looking forward to introducing some new varietal wines in upcoming vintages.
It’s the perfect time of year to vanish from the cold and visit Argentina! Stop in at our newly renovated tasting room in charming Chacras de Coria, located just outside the city of Mendoza. Our stylish tasting room & restaurant features our full lineup of HOG and Achàval Ferrer wines with alfresco dining options.
