Mendoza, Argentina
A gold medal-winning red blend ready to stand up to meaty dishes
ABOUT THIS WINE:
PrimaZona
Red Wine Blend
A two-time gold medal-winning wine from a pioneer of Argentinian winemaking. Harvested from 100-year-old vines planted by the family that originated winemaking in Argentina, this bold blend took home gold medalsat both the 2016 Harvest Challenge and the 2017 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition.

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.
