The body is medium, providing just the right amount of weight on the palate without feeling overwhelming. With bright acidity, this wine dances elegantly on the tongue, enhancing its refreshing nature. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing luscious notes of ripe cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle earthy undertones. Tannins are medium, offering a gentle structure that supports the fruit while remaining soft and approachable. This wine is bone dry, making it an inviting choice for various occasions, whether enjoyed on its own or paired with light dishes. Alto Limay Joven is a remarkable testament to the unique terroir of Patagonia, capturing the essence of its surroundings in every sip.

Region:


Patagonia

The southernmost tip of Argentina is perfecto for growing cool-climate grapes. Patagonia's altitude, arid conditions and Antarctic influence result in wines with uniquely intense color and flavor. Pinot Noir is the standout variety, creating vibrant wines with glorious red fruit characters. Argentina's ever-reliable Malbec is a stalwart here, too, channeling the long, slow ripening season into gloriously bold yet elegant wines. But it was the early European-style Rieslings and Cabernet Sauvignons from the Rio Negro and Neuquen area in the north that initially put Patagonia on the wine map. These unspoiled valleys with their mineral-rich rivers produce wines as distinctive as the unique terroir that creates them.
