Wine from Alta Vista

Filter

Alta Vista was founded by Count Patrick d’Aulan, heir of more than 250 years of winemaking tradition. With an enterprising spirit, he arrived in Argentina in the 90s looking for the best regions of Los Andes. And that’s how he discovered an exceptional terroir for wine production, and gathered a passionate team with a dream in common: To achieve the fullest expression of Argentinean wine and French savoir-faire.
In Alta Vista, we work to raise the experience. We try to exalt Argentinian terroir by following our three essential values:

Full commitment to our community, place, culture, and environment.
Constant search of challenges to keep on learning and growing.
Peaceful coexistence with the unique natural expression of each terroir, known as bio-adaptability.

Our winery is located in Chacras de Coria, Mendoza. Built in 1890, it is a local heritage site of Mendoza. Count Patrick d’Aulan and his family, former owners of Piper Heidsieck, one of the oldest Champagne Houses, developed the project and started the restoration.

Since the moment Alta Vista was founded, research and innovation have been part of the essence of our technical team. Technology applied to winemaking has always been a crucial component of every single process and stage.

Alta Vista Single Vineyard Temis Malbec 2020

$69.99 $57.00

Buy Now

This vineyard is situated at over 3,000 feet in altitude in Valle de Uco, and the vines are over seventy years old. This light soil is sandy with some silt, is very permeable and has boulders and a broken layer of limestone at a depth of 2.5 feet. Traditional irrigation is fed by water from the Andes Mountains. Temis has the coldest climate of all Alta Vista’s terroirs. Nights are quite cool and days are warm and soft, with constant breezes that help to keep the vines and grapes healthy. The grapes have a slow, gradual cycle of ripeness that is balanced and ideal. Planted in 1942, the selection massale vines are characterized by small clusters with small, compact grapes.

Review:

There’s a touch of bark, grilled Mediterranean spice savoriness to the rich but fresh blackberries, salted black plums and graphite notes. Pretty saline and flavorful on the palate. The tannins are powerful yet fine-grained. A structured and characterful malbec from old vines in El Cepillo.

Quilt Grace of the Land Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2018

The Grace of the Land

For our 2018 Napa Valley Quilt Reserve, we tasted the developing wine throughout the fermentation and aging processes, then set aside the very best 2% for this reserve bottling. Our lot selection was based on intensity, complexity and boldness of expression that could withstand a longer aging cycle and heavier use of new French oak.

Tasting Notes

Deep Ruby Red in color with aromas of black currant, bright cherry, toffee, blackberry, marionberry pie and notes of dark chocolate. Rich and satisfying on the palate with flavors of boysenberry jam, black cherry pie filling, and cocoa layered with notes of vanilla and hazelnut. A full-bodied Cabernet with layers of concentrated black fruit, bright acidity and excellent balance. A long, velvety and satisfying finish, enjoy this stellar vintage now and for years to come!

Review:

Powerful and rich tasting, this wine from Joseph Wagner is velvety in texture and spicy in aroma. It drips with jammy Port like flavors that are backed by fine-grained tannins that tightened a bit on the finish for a good grip. Best from 2025.
