“H, the silent letter of the Spanish alphabet, represents the best wine that Chistián Allamand is capable of making using the fruit of vineyards he works every day in Mendoza, Argentina. Armed with his ambition to make the best possible wine, Allamand offers his Allamand H only in those vintages he considers outstanding.” - Winemaker's notes
