Bodega El Porvenir Amauta Absoluto Tannat 2022

This sustainably farmed, single vineyard estate wine is composed of 100% hand harvested Tannat from the Calchaqui Valley, Salta. This fruit driven red wine shows raspberry and plum with notes of rose petal and white pepper on the nose. Extremely soft and smooth tannins for Tannat lead the fruit to a soft and velvety finish.

El Porvenir de Cafayate is one of the benchmark wineries of Salta. The oldest vineyard was planted approximately 65 years ago and each parcel is primarily comprised of sandy soils with elevations ranging from 1650 to 1900 metres above sea level. They strive to maintain the legacy of their ancestors while incorporating current winemaking and viticulture.

All grapes are hand harvested, working with Tannat, Torrontes, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah along with some small plots of additional varietals. The winery is currently run by Lucia Romero-Marcuzzi, the granddaughter of Roberto, the founder of El Porvenir de Cafayate.
