2020 Corazon del Sol Malbec Los Chacayes Uco Valley

Winemaker Notes:  At 3,400‘-3,600’ in elevation, along an ancient riverbed at the base of the Andes Mountains we planted seven acres of ‘massalle selection’ Malbec cuttings sourced from 100 year old vineyards in Agrelo and Perdriel. This Malbec is the freshest and most fruity of our Malbec family. Showcasing aromas of red fruits, spice, and desert flora, it is aged in used French Oak barrels.

Corazón Del Sol was established in 2008 and has been at the forefront of innovation in Argentina, pioneering some of the very first Grenache, and Mourvèdre plantings, and helping to pave the way for the Los Chacayes region. We believe that our wines start in the vineyard, and our low intervention winemaking approach ensures our single vineyard bottleings and blends capture a true sense of time and place. After success in both Napa Valley (Revana Family Vineyard) and the Willamette Valley (Alexana Vineyards and Winery), Dr. Madaiah Revana sought out to extend his portfolio of terroir driven, vineyard specific wines to the southern hemisphere. After visiting the Uco Valley in 2008, he discovered untapped potential for world class wines. With surgical precision, and a quality driven philosophy, he continues to produce inspiring wines from inspiring landscapes.
