Deep purple in color. Notes of spices, red cherries and plums. Good structure, fresh and elegant mouth-feel, well-balanced with a long intense finish
The grapes are cultivated from vineyards located in Caucete, at 650 meters (2,133 feet) above sea level, in alluvial, sandy-textured soil. The vines are drip irrigated with snowmelt runoff from the Andes, providing the optimum amount of water to each plant. Vines are trained on trellis.
| Wine maker notes |
| The grapes are hand-harvested and clusters are manually selected before de-stemming. Pre-fermentative maceration is performed at 12°C for 72 hours. Fermentation takes place at 24°C for 10 days. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks for 5 months. |

| Food pairing |
| Due to the character of young red wines like Callia Alta, serve this wine slightly cooler than you would serve older red wines. A temperature of 15°C - 16°C is ideal as it allows for the integration of fruity flavors and the tannic structure of this wine. |
