Matias Morcos

Matias is an enthusiastic young winemaker leading his family wine business in its third generation. Founded in 1950 by Lebanese immigrants, who bought a Vineyard with vines planted 70 years prior. The focus pre-Matias was the production of bulk wine for the booming domestic market, where consumption quadrupled. Matias made it his personal mission to produce exceptional quality wines; using old Pergola trained vines, restoring the 100-year-old winery and refurbishing and dividing old concrete tanks for small batch production. The Vineyard’s are located in East Mendoza, with altitudes ranging from 600-1,100 metres above sea level.

Rose pink in the glass. On the nose, honey, candied orange and lemon peel with a hint of honeysuckle and white flowers. On the palate, a good acidity coupled with dried citrus fruits, raisins and a floral finish.

Drink with hard and soft cheeses, or chilli noodles

Fermented in cement vats at low temperatures. With the idea to keep as much freshness as possible. Skin contact is used throughout. Achieving a unique flavour and good complexity is the aim of this technique but also, imperatively, fresh aromatics and varietal expression. 6 months spent on Lees to enhance the complexity further and balance the acidity.
