In 2008, we planted a single acre of Grenache at 3,100 feet in elevation on the rock covered western edge in the Uco Valley, a unique area that would become the Los Chacayes IG.

This acre is located in our Estate's Block 13 and with only about 20 acres of Grenache being grown in all of Mendoza, it is a rare wine. 

The rocky and sandy loam soils result in naturally lower yields compounded with intense UV radiation and extreme temperature swings that create an expression of Grenache unlike anywhere in the world.
