Wine unites family, friends, and special moments.”

Relaunch of Trapiche Reserve

Trapiche Reserve has been the ultimate expression of high altitude terroir in Argentina since 1883. Born at the foot of the Andes, the brand offers balance and complexity in equal measure. A new sophisticated label highlights the iconic winery building in Maipú and the impressive mountains of Mendoza, thus emphasizing the origin and high-soaring spirit of this line of wines. Sourced from selected vineyards at over 750 metres above sea level, Trapiche Reserve is cultivated as part of the estate’s continual exploration of terroir.

High altitude, generous sunshine and mineral-rich soils at the foot of the Andes produces deeply aromatic Malbec grapes.

It offers the supple tannins and deep aromatic intensity that are the true essence of Argentina’s flagship grape variety.
