Grapes are grown at an altitude of 6,000-9,000 ft and above. Intense UV light and day/night temperature swings create berries with thicker skins, meaning more tannins and flavor compounds for robust, complex wines.
Water scarcity creates smaller berries with more concentrated flavor & the thick skins developed by these grapes have high levels of polyphenols, including flavinoids & resveratrol
For 200 years now, a few small families deep in the Andes mountains have been making a dark malbec wine unlike anything else you’ve ever tasted. These wines are made in such small quantity, many wouldn’t normally make it to the U.S.

After each collection, certain wines become available for members to purchase in larger numbers. Selections from across the world, with a particular focus on high & extreme altitude Argentine wines. Members only. Limited inventory, first come first served.
High-altitude wines, like those from the Andes Mountains, are grown at extreme elevations (6,000-9,000 ft.), where intense UV exposure and dramatic temperature shifts create thicker-skinned grapes. This results in bold, concentrated flavors, richer tannins, and higher antioxidant content compared to wines from lower elevations.
Yes! Due to the extreme isolation and minimal pests in high-altitude vineyards, these wines require fewer chemicals than mass-produced wines. Many of our selections are made using traditional, minimal-intervention methods, preserving the purest expression of the terroir.
For best results:
These bold Malbecs pair beautifully with grilled meats, aged cheeses, and dark chocolate. Their rich tannins and deep fruit flavors make them an ideal match for steaks, lamb, or hearty pasta dishes.
Yes! Our wines are made in small batches by Andean winemaking families, with limited annual production. Many bottles are not typically available outside the region, making them rare and exclusive.
Experience the bold, high-altitude wines that mass-market bottles can’t match. Handcrafted in the Andes Mountains, our rare, small-batch Malbecs deliver intense flavors, rich tannins, and a depth only extreme altitude can produce.
