At the foot of the Frontal Mountain Range, at an altitude of 1,360 meters, this area of Gualtallary that we know as “Monasterio” has a temperate and arid climate: a true high altitude desert. Located in the small valley at the foot of the Jaboncillo Hills, the slopes and ravines enclose a landscape rich in thorny bushes, desert trees, and jarilla herbs, that grow alongside Malbec vines. For this wine, we selected the parcels most rich in caliche and stones covered in calcareous material.

The 2020 was a very particular vintage, characterized by limited yields and a high speed of maturity, which made it one of the fastest and most challenging on record. The grapes from all areas and varieties arrived at the winery with unbeatable health and the highest quality. The wines generally show excellent aromatic complexity and great juiciness, texture and structure in the mouth.
