Argentina
Argentina is blessed with some of the most stunningly situated vineyards anywhere in the world – they also happen to be the highest too. This altitude, between 1000 to 2400 metres above sea level gives Argentinian wines their unique character. Long sunny days and cold nights during the growing season allows grapes an extended ripening period, giving balanced development between sugars, acidity and tannins. The diverse wine scene comes courtesy of 19th century immigrants from Italy and Spain who brought with them European grape varieties and winemaking knowledge.
The Malbec grape has settled particularly well in Mendoza and helped launch Argentina to notoriety on the world stage. It’s not all about Malbec though, as the aromatic white grape Torrontes is also making intriguing and distinctive wines. Other thicker skinned grapes such Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc also produce delicious wines in this climate. In the coolest areas such as Salta and Patagonia, Pinot Noir and Criolla make elegant yet concentrated red wine.
