Description
Built in 1898, Terrazas’s winery was built by Sotero Arizu, one of the pioneers in the creation of the wine production market in Argentina.
The oldest vineyard Las Compuertas was planted in 1929, designed to produce the ultimate expression of Malbec.
Today, Argentina dominates the world in Malbec production and has helped popularize the grape around the world.
Surrounded by the high peaks of the Andes, Terrazas’s vineyard is located in the heart of Mendoza’s Lujan de Cuyo and Uco Valley.
With the extremely high altitude, low rainfall and rocky soil, wines made in the region are pushed hard for hydration and nutrients.
The results of successful wine in this region develop intensely vivid flavours.
The climate also assists in lowering acidity, which assists in the winemakers in producing the purest expression of each wine.
Terrazas Des Los Andes Reserva Chardonnay delivers fresh and fruity characters of white peach, pear and pineapple with citric hints.
Aromas of white roses and brioche appear together with subtle notes of hazelnut and vanilla.
A finely integrated and elegant palate has perfect balance between its velvety texture and high acidity.
