ABOUT THIS WINE:
Andás
Sweet Mountain Red Wine
Our Sweet Mountain Red stresses the advantage of high-elevation winegrowing with ripe red and dark fruit flavors, soft textures, and satisfying sweetness. From the talented brand behind the San Diego International Wine and Spirits Challenge’s “Best Malbec” comes another delicious taste of Mendoza, Argentina. These hardy red grapes are exposed to intense sunlight at soaring altitudes in the Andes Mountains, which unlocks a vast spectrum of flavors while softening textures. This results in plump bunches of ripe grapes at harvest time. Our 2021 blend is a fruit-forward and friendly end to a tiring day. In the spirit of treating yourself, we encourage you to pour a glass, gather a plate of your favorite sweet treats, and unwind with layers of indulgent jammy flavor.

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:
Chocolate
Cherry
Mulberry
This wine offers seductive aromas of black forest cake and ripe plums. The palate is full-bodied and plush with modest acidity and velvety tannins. Here, sweet cherry and mulberry flavors give way to layers of decadent chocolate that linger between each sip.

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.
