Description
Fósil is a white mountain wine. It comes from their vineyard in the Estancia Place within the IG San Pablo, at 1400 metres of elevation, and only 300 metres away from the Cordillera. The immensity of the mountain range and its proximity makes everything that surrounds it extreme: its climate, its landscape, its identity. Fósil is a place wine. Born from the unrepeatable combination of cold weather, calcareous soils, and Andean breezes from one of the highest areas of the Uco Valley. 2019 vintage was an exceptional one, where the climatic conditions allowed us to harvest each region, variety and soil type at the time we were expecting. The grapes were direct pressed. Fermented with native yeasts in concrete vessels, without malolactic fermentation. Aged in concrete and in 500L French oak barrels.
