Matias Riccitelli is crafting some of Argentina’s most exciting wines. At the foot of the Andes, over 1,000 meters above sea level, his vineyards have become a benchmark for quality in the region.
A passionate and innovative winemaker, Matias employs manual harvesting, rigorous sorting, and aging in French oak barrels. His wines are celebrated for their elegance, perfectly capturing the finesse of this remarkable terroir.
As the son of Jorge Riccitelli, crowned Winemaker of the Year in 2012 by Wine Enthusiast, it’s tempting to say the next generation is already setting a new standard. |
