One half of the vineyards come from Agrelo Alto in the Luján de Cuyo department, the other from the Tupungato area (named after the volcano of the same name) in the Uco Valley. Both areas cultivate their vineyards using certified organic methods. A further characteristic of both origins is their high alpine altitude, which, with its distinct fluctuations between warm daytime and cold nighttime temperatures, slows down the natural ripening process. This allows the grapes to gradually develop their full aromatic and phenolic ripeness, resulting in wines with a fine balance of intense fruit, ripe tannins, and lively acidity. What clearly distinguishes the two areas, however, are the soils. In Agrelo, alluvial soils produce a dense, fruit-driven Malbec with aromas of black fruit, while the poor soils in Tupungato impart elegant floral notes and a noticeable mineral character to the wine.","brand":"Puro Dieter Meier","offers":[{"title":"2021","offer_id":52694873112912,"sku":"V08300","price":33.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2022","offer_id":53093140824400,"sku":"V08300-2022","price":33.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/vinoscout_puro_malbec_grapes_selection.webp?v=1771237778"},{"product_id":"salentein-barrel-selection-merlot","title":"Salentein Barrel Selection Merlot","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Merlot from the high Andes – strongly structured, but with the velvety smoothness that the grape variety promises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Bodega Salentein is located in the Uco Valley, one of Mendoza\u0026#39;s highest-altitude wine-growing regions, at over 1,000 meters.
