Production: Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon vines for Puro Corte grow in the high altitude vineyards of Luján de Cuyo. The biggest advantage of this altitude, the cool nights. Because they delay the natural aging process, thereby allowing the grapes to reach full physiological maturity to develop a harmonious balance of this alcohol and tannin flavors at the same time to maintain a fresh acidity. Dieter Meier manages his vineyards to organic farming methods, the extremely dry soil will trickle with the melting water from the Andes irrigated. The grapes of both varieties are harvested in mid April, immediately brought to the winery and fermented at controlled temperatures of 27 here to 29 ° C in a stainless steel tank. To add even more aromatic blend of richness and texture, the wines are made after completion of alcoholic fermentation in French oak barrels (about 50% from second assignment).
