About us

A land with story

For Anne-Caroline Biancheri, building a family was not only about having children—it was also essential to create a life project rooted in values, with landscapes and aromas as its ever-present backdrop.

It all began with the land. She searched for the perfect place, and thus arrived in Vista Flores, at the foot of the Andes Mountains in the Uco Valley of Mendoza.

There, Anne-Caroline discovered a treasure: a privileged region, not only for its breathtaking beauty but also for its geographic and climatic conditions, which are ideal for producing iconic wines.

In the land once inhabited by native peoples, Antucura was born—a name that means “stone of the sun” in the Mapudungun language. Here, where gravel embraces the vines and the rich terroir thrives under cool nights and sun-filled days, the grapes mature slowly and are harvested by hand.

Antucura is far more than winemaking—it is a carefully conceived and deeply desired creation, guided by a keen eye and a passionate heart, with attention paid to every detail.

Anne-Caroline Biancheri

Owner

Born in France and shaped by a richly experienced stay in Africa, she always sought a place of reference where she could best express her creative desire and channel her enormous energy to realize her dreams.

From her childhood and education, she retained a penchant for exoticism, wide open spaces, and adventure.

Once she completed her university studies in management and business at the American University of Paris, Anne-Caroline Biancheri arrived in Argentina. She first founded a publishing house (1993), then a ranch (1998), a winery (2003), and a lodge (2006), where she reconnected with the charm of the land.

Make your life a dream, and your dream a reality.
