El Montanista San Juan Tinto ‘Corte de Tintas’, 2024

Viejas Tintas is Barbera, Bonarda, Greco Nero, Rabosso Veronese, Cardin, and Freisa (all old Piemontese varieties) from the 80-year-old Paraje Hilario vineyard, planted on quartz rich colluvial rocks at 1500m in the foothills of the Andes mountains. The grapes were hand harvested and left whole cluster to ferment in concrete vessels without temperature control, in an infusion style inspired by winemakers like Comando G, before gently pressing with a 200kg vertical screw press into concrete to rest for 7 months before bottling.
