Founded in 2003 by Chilean, Patricio Reich, Bodega Renacer is in Perdriel, in the foothills of the Andes. With a little over 35 hectares of vineyard planted, Renacer also buys high quality Malbec grapes from partner growers in the Uco Valley and Medrano. The estate’s vineyards lie at 1,000 metres altitude on alluvial soils with a stony sand over a richer clay layer below and many vines are over 50 years old. Well-known Italian winemaker, Alberto Antonini consults here and they were the first estate in Argentina to employ precision viticulture, a system that analyses specific areas within a vineyard so as to better manage them and have less of an environmental impact. They were also the first Argentinean winery to be run on solar power and to neutralise its carbon emissions. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and cement tanks and ageing in 225 litre French oak barrels.
Winemaking >
"The grapes come from certified organic vineyards where environmentally friendly practices are followed. During vinification, no external agents are added that could mask the expression of the grape variety, such as tartaric or citric acid to adjust acidity, or sulfur dioxide for stabilization.
This wine is produced using the Pétillant Naturel method, in which fermentation begins in tank and the wine is bottled with approximately 23 g/L of residual sugar. Fermentation then continues in bottle with native yeasts. The wine is neither fined nor filtered, which explains its characteristic turbidity. The result is a wine with an exceptionally creamy and delicate mousse."
