More on the wine
Coming from the heights of Yacachuya in Cafayate, this is a high altitude wine where the nights are cool but the days are hot hot. The result is of course deep colour and concentration, but you’ll find good acidity and fresh fruit in this wine.
More on the producer
Santiago Achaval and Roberto Cipresso are best known for their joint project at Achaval Ferrer, but this is a new venture – seeking out mountain soils for top Malbecs. Matervini (meaning ‘mother of all wine’) is their experimental project and so far they have two wines to come out of it – this Malbec from Salta, and another from the Uco Valley.
