Altos Las Hormigas Jardín de Hormigas Meteora 2022 is crafted from Malbec grapes sourced from unique plots in the Uco Valley of Mendoza. This single-vineyard wine emerges from the high-altitude Jardín Altamira vineyard, which sits at 1,200 metres above sea level. Altos Las Hormigas is recognised for its commitment to organic practices, utilising indigenous yeast for fermentation in unlined concrete tanks. With no oak influence, the wine presents a raw expression of the terroir, revealing notes of red fruit, subtle herbs and mineral undertones alongside structured tannins.
