Achaval-Ferrer

Mendoza Malbec and Chardonnay from Lujan de Cuyo's high-altitude vineyards.

Achaval-Ferrer operates in Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza's premier subregion for Malbec. The winery's portfolio centers on two grapes: Malbec, which thrives in Mendoza's high-altitude terroir, and Chardonnay, capturing the region's capacity for white wine complexity. Finca Mirador and Finca Altamira Malbec represent the winery's expression of the varietal, while Singular Chardonnay demonstrates range beyond the region's signature red. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, Falstaff, and Decanter. Mendoza's continental climate, with its warm days and cool nights, creates conditions for concentrated fruit and structured tannins—qualities evident in the winery's Malbec offerings. The region's elevation and mineral-rich soils inform the character of wines produced here.
