Winery
The essence of France and our terroir in every glass
Respect for the terroir and time-honored winemaking traditions, combined with cutting-edge vinification technologies, give rise to super and ultra-premium wines that embody balance, finesse, and heritage.
Crafted under rigorous quality standards and with meticulous attention to every stage of the process—from the vineyard to bottling—we produce sincere, complex wines that proudly represent our brand across the globe.
Expressive blends and authentic varietals emulate the wines of Pomerol, enhanced by the nuances of a warmer climate.
Thanks to the manual selection of each cluster and a gravity-fed winemaking system, the grapes are spared excessive pressure, allowing the wine to develop under exceptional conditions, resulting in elegant and refined expressions.
Our story began in 2003, with the first vintages released to the market in late 2005, following a meticulous period of barrel and bottle aging.
The magic lies in the remarkable synergy between Anne-Caroline and winemaker Mauricio Ortiz, who together achieve a perfect alchemy between the unique attributes of our terroir and the classical French approach to winemaking—instilling our wines with a distinct sense of origin and elegance
Argentine wines with a French touch
Vineyards
Our vineyards include Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vines, brought from Pomerol, France, later joined by Malbec, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc.
Patiently cultivated
Patience is an essential ingredient in the making of our wines.
At Antucura, we understand this virtue as key to approaching each stage of the process with calm, free from haste or anxiety, fully convinced that the right and perfect timing will deliver the finest experience.
To persist, to persevere, and to trust—with absolute conviction—that a methodical approach will yield the desired fruit is fundamental to our philosophy, as we believe the process is as valuable as the outcome
All of this takes place in the privileged geography of Vista Flores, where our 100-hectare vineyard is located—high-density by Argentine standards, with 5,500 plants per hectare—at an elevation of 1,050 meters above sea level.
This region has become firmly established as an ideal location for growing fine grapes, thanks to its unique soil composition and broad thermal amplitude. We work on a glaciar-born boulder stones territory that provides optimal condition for our vines. The soil is silty loam, alluvial in origin, with gravel in the subsoil and notable stoniness throughout.
The climate is continental, with low rainfall, and irrigation is managed via an automated drip system.
Our vineyards include Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vines brought directly from Pomerol, France, later joined by Malbec, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc.
