At the foot of the Andes in western Argentina, Mendoza produces around 70% of the country's wine and is the global capital of Malbec. Vineyards sit between 700 m and over 1,500 m on alluvial fans of gravel, sand and clay, irrigated by Andean snowmelt. High altitude delivers intense sunlight by day and sharp cooling at night, giving wines deep colour, generous fruit, and natural freshness. Malbec from the Uco Valley, Luján de Cuyo and Maipú expresses radically different profiles by altitude; Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Bonarda and the white Torrontés complete the offer.
