When Santiago Achaval and Manuel Ferrer Minetti linked up with the Italian wine consultant Roberto Cipresso to buy the 8ha vineyard of Finca Altamira in 1998, the concept of single vineyard was virtually unknown in Argentina. Their conviction that low-yielding, ungrafted, old Malbec vines planted in poor, stony soils would express themselves in different ways according to location led to the discovery, at different elevations and over different soil profiles, of Finca Bellavista in Perdriel and Finca Mirador in Medrano. ‘In each bottle, you can see and taste the differences of soil profile, elevation, temperature, vintage and the characteristics that each of these variables produce in each terroir,’ says Achaval Ferrer’s Julio Lasmartres. With an Italian cast about their freshness, Achaval Ferrer’s single-vineyard Malbecs are among Argentina’s greatest and longest-lived. A dense, highly perfumed Malbec with floral notes and a polished veneer of lightly charred oak, sumptuous dark cherry and blackberry fruit with the silkiest of tannins and a firm spine of bright, damsony acidity.
