    I simply love the 2018 Histoire d’A Pinot Noir. It's from a classic Mendoza vintage, dry, cool, sunny and with moderate yields in every region from the lowest to the highest altitudes. It combines the violets and red cherries with notes of blood orange peel and fine spices. This plot of vines on the Arianna Vineyard in Gualtallary has very shallow soils and an east exposure, which, combined with the vintage, has produced a very fresh and elegant wine, full of energy and light. It has refined tannin's and very clean and focused flavors.

Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of the greatest vignerons in Burgundy. Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”

With a winning combination of cool weather, high elevation and well-draining alluvial soils, it is no surprise that Mendoza’s Uco Valley is one of the most exciting up-and-coming wine regions in Argentina. Healthy, easy-to-manage vines produce low yields of high-quality fruit, which in turn create flavorful, full-bodied wines with generous acidity.

This is the source of some of the best Malbec in Mendoza, which can range from value-priced to ultra-premium. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Chardonnay also perform well here.
