Argentina wines - 4 references for sale online

CARA SUR is a small winery formed in 2011 as a partnership between two couples who were inspired to revive ancestral vines and produce wines from traditional Argentine varietals.
Sebastián Zuccardi and Marcela Manini teamed up with Nuria Año Gargiulo and Pancho Burgallo, an avid mountaineering couple who live in Barreal, in the Calingasta de San Juan Valley, north of Mendoza. This spirit of mountaineering is represented in the name: Cara Sur means "south face" and refers to the more difficult approach of Cerro Mercedario, one of the highest peaks in Argentina, which can be seen from Barreal , the birthplace of Pancho and Nuria.
The quartet produces wines from Moscatel, Moscatel Tinto, Bonarda, Barbera and Criolla Chica. The vineyard is located along the Los Patos River in Barreal on stony ground 1500 meters above sea level. The vines were trained on a Parral, or pergola: a ceiling trellis system that provides shade and maximizes air circulation.

Located 1070 meters above sea level, the historic Las Compuertas vineyard is located on the left bank of the Rio Mendoza.
