Floral aromas join with bright notes of green and white tropical fruits. The palate is medium weight with lemon, lime, grapefruit, pear, nectarine, honeysuckle, elderflower, jasmine and crisp acid. The fruit remains balanced, integrated and refreshing.

WINE INFORMATION

El Porvenir was founded in the Calchaqui Valley in the town of Cafayate by the Romero-Marcuzzi family in 2000.  The family’s first winery was established in the late 1970s in Tolombón, just a few miles from the town of Cafayate.  They have been an integral part of the development of the Cafayate community and El Porvenir de Cafayate has become one of the benchmark wineries of the Salta region.  The family strives to maintain the legacy of their ancestors while incorporating current winemaking and viticulture.  They own and farm four different vineyards within the Calchaqui Valley, all of which are located close to the town of Cafayate.  The oldest vineyard was planted approximately 65 years ago and each parcel is primarily comprised of sandy soils with elevations ranging from 5400 to 6200 feet above sea level. 

 All grapes are hand harvested and they farm Tannat, Torrontes, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah along with some small plots of additional varietals.  The gravity-fed winery and cellar is housed within a handmade adobe structure in downtown Cafayate.  The winery is currently run by Lucia Romero-Marcuzzi, the granddaughter of Roberto, the founder of El Porvenir de Cafayate.
