2009 Altos de San Isidro - Barbera Reserve

2009 Altos de San Isidro - Barbera Reserve
Salta is located in the Northeastern region of Argentina, at 26º S. It is one of the oldest regions for producing wines and dates back to the age of the Spanish conquistadors.

Salta has the highest altitude vineyards in the world, the highest with an elevation nearly 10,000 feet above sea level.With each harvest Salta gains more attention as the newly rediscovered "pearl" of Argentina.

The Calchaqui Valley is the principal wine producing region of Salta and surrounds the city of Cafayate. The region has sunny days which allows excellent maturation and concentration.

The high altitude vineyards benefit from the cool Andean nights to achieve balance and elegance. The high thermal amplitude and powerful sunlight produce intense flavors and aromas.

Altos de San Isidro is 60 acres of vineyards planted in 1970 by Héctor "Chacho" Herrero, the son of don Melchor Herrero and Francisca Cerezo, two Spanish immigrants. In 2006, Héctor and his wife Rosana founded the family winery Herrero Cerezo, taking the name from the grandparents who immigrated to Argentina from the Ribera del Duero in 1912.

José Luis Mounier is a long time neighbor to the Herrero family.Although originally from Mendoza, José Luis has produced wine in Salta for more than 25 years. He is currently considered by many as the top winemaker in Salta and has brought his knowledge and experience to Altos de San Isidro to help achieve the best wines possible from this special vineyard.

In 2009, Héctor and José Luis Mounier produced and bottled their own Malbec, Barbera and Torrontes from the highly valued Altos de San Isidro property. Vineyard Brands Importer
