Altaluvia Riesling 2019
South American wine producer Santa Rita Estates launched a standalone Argentine brand at the end of last year. Called Altaluvia, the brand sources its grapes from the Alluvia vineyard, 1,350 metres above sea level in Gualtallary in the Uco Valley. The range comprises a Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Chardonnay and Riesling. The Riesling grapes were picked at the end of March, with a protective destemming and pressing process carried out. A total of 40% of the juice was fermented in second-use French oak barrels, while the remaining 60% was put into stainless steel tanks. The two wines were later blended, resulting in the finished product.
