Corte de Tintas is a blend of local grapes found at the foothills of the Andes, on quartz-rich, rocky soils. Criolla chica (Listan Prieto/Pais), Criolla grande, Cereza, Canela, and Moscatel Tinto all play a part. The result is a wine with vivacious energy, crunchy red berry fruit, and a very fresh and stony finish. //

"Tech notes" from Jose Pastor Selections: The grapes were harvested by hand in 15kg baskets. The Criolla Chica was left whole cluster, while the other varieties were 70-75% destemmed. All of the grapes were crushed by foot and macerated on the skins for the duration of fermentation (14-21 days) without temperature control in concrete vessels before they were gently pressed with a 200kg vertical screw press, then rested for seven months in concrete before bottling.
