Finca La Igriega
Finca La Igriega sits in Paraje Altamira, a subregion of Uco Valley in Mendoza, Argentina's premier wine territory. The winery produces a Cabernet-led blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec that has earned recognition from Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Falstaff. The blend averages 90.4 in prestige critic ratings. Alongside it, the winery crafts a varietal Malbec and a Malbec Rosé, both drawing on the region's signature dark-skinned grape. Uco Valley's high altitude and continental climate create the conditions for structured reds with depth and precision—qualities evident in La Igriega's portfolio. The blend showcases the complexity that emerges when Cabernet's architecture meets Malbec's richness; the varietal Malbec and Rosé offer complementary expressions of the same grape across different styles.
