"This wine is the heart of Luminis' line of wines from the Valle de Uco region. It is a 100% malbec that comes from three different vineyards planted in Valle de Uco. Located at more than 3,000 ft above sea level, and being at the foot of the Andes range, the Valle de Uco region is the land of the most refined and elegant malbecs in Argentina. This is one of our "appellation” driven wines and through it, we at Bodegas y Viñedos Luminis are trying to capture what malbec from the Uco Valley is about: malbecs of deep purple color, lots of violets in the nose, and natural great acidity." - Winemaker's notes
