Winery Notes
The Tapiz Winery, located in the San Pablo I.G. in Mendoza’s Uco Valley, has one of the highest vineyards in Mendoza at 4,600 feet above sea level. Under the ownership and vision of Patricia Ortiz, Tapiz is a pioneer in the region and helped develop San Pablo into one of Argentina’s most renowned IGs. The state-of-the art winery is in the heart of the estate vineyards, at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. Winemaker Fabian Valenzuela has teamed up with famed Bordeaux winemaker Jean Claude Berrouet (Petrus) to create a beautiful “tapiz” (tapestry) of terroir and innovation. Their wines are full-bodied, concentrated and terroir driven, yet elegant and balanced.
Through her wineries, Patricia is dedicated to giving back to the environment through sustainable practices. She believes that sustainability is the interaction of community and the environment and at Tapiz they strive to make measurable contributions and encourage responsible practices among their staff, suppliers, and customers. As Sommelier Journal said: “Take note – this is a winery to follow.”
Tasting Notes
Aromas of dark and bitter berries, tobacco, cocoa and cedar. Medium bodied with fine grained tannins. Very juicy long finish.
