Tasting Notes

In 2005, Andrej Razumovsky, his cousin Andre Hoffmann, and their mate Jeremie Delecourt, three European expatriates in Mendoza, sowed the first vines of what would become Alpamanta Estate. They committed their 35 hectares of untouched land in Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza, to organic and biodynamic practices from the start, earning certifications to affirm their dedication. This Syrah, birthed from a distinct parcel of Alpamanta's singular vineyard, presents itself as a lively and youthful wine. It's redolent with intense aromas of plums, herbs, and spices, and features a medium-bodied palate, superb equilibrium, and a silk-smooth finale.

Alpamanta Estate

In 2005, a trio of European expats, Andrej Razumovsky, Andre Hoffmann, and Jeremie Delecourt, embarked on a remarkable journey in the heart of Mendoza, giving birth to Alpamanta Estate. Their story began with the planting of the first vines on 35 hectares of pristine land in Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza. Since its inception, this sacred soil has proudly held certifications for biodynamic cultivation. A symphony of life thrives in their vineyard – buzzing insects serenade the day and night, while free-roaming animals help maintain the lush grass. The clay soil, enriched by alluvial deposits, mirrors the distinctive terroir of Ugarteche. Guided by Italian consultant Giuseppe Franceschini, Alpamanta Estate marries tradition with a contemporary vision. Their youthful Natal wines embrace the essence of natural winemaking, unfettered by oak or additives, save for a touch of sulphur. The Estate wines, in contrast, luxuriate in oak, aging patiently until they reach their peak before release.
