Vineyard Overview
Area
10 Hectares
Micro-Climate
Humid; ventilation provided by cooling breezes at night as our vineyard is situated on a hill and a valley, 180 metres above sea level which is our average height in our area. To the west the hills go to 400 metres asl and that helps protect the vineyards from the strong winds summer brings.
Soil-Type
We have very old soils in Uruguay, from the mother rock shared with South Africa. Crystalline Basement, which gave origin to the oldest soils in the planet over 2500 million years ago. These rocks go through a process of alteration and brakes down through million years of weathering, a fantastic soil rock is formed, called "Balasto", of orange color and very drainy.
