Nestled at the foothills of the Andes, its vineyards lie between 900 and 1,500 metres above sea level, enjoying abundant sunshine, cool nights, and rocky, mineral-rich soils. These conditions produce vibrant wines with fresh acidity, refined structure, and distinctive floral, fruity, and mineral notes, making the Uco Valley a benchmark for world-class Malbec and other fine varietals.
