WINE REGION:
Mendoza
Mendoza is the heart of Argentinian wine production. It was here where a previously little-known French grape variety called Malbec became a global superstar. With its extreme altitudes and Andean climate, Mendoza nurtures its vineyards in dramatic sun-drenched plateaus set against snow-capped peaks. At these elevations, the intense UV light ripens grapes in a unique way, working with the cold mountain air to create gloriously supple and expressive wines with bold yet brightly aromatic fruit. Mendoza's high-quality varietals from Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are also notable, as are its fine Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from sub-regions such as Maipú, Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.

TASTING NOTES:
Mint
Blueberry
Chocolate
Refreshing spearmint aromas awaken the senses. The mouthfeel is tighter and more textural than a riper California-style Merlot, showcasing moderate tannins balanced with mild acidity. Freshly picked blueberry flavors join sweet dark chocolate on the palate for a lingering finish.

ABOUT THE BRAND:
Andás
The name Andás has a few associations with place and culture in Argentina. What place? The Andes Mountains, whose striking peaks dominate Argentina's landscape, hoisting vineyards up towards the sun. The culture? A phrase, "que andás," which loosely translates to "how's it going," "let's go," or simply a greeting between peers. Each of these high-altitude wines speaks to its roots, a place you can't help but remember and a feeling you'll never forget.
