The vineyard is located at an altitude of 1300 meters, where the Merlot grapes are hand-picked. Only the finest juice is good enough to bear the Andeluna label. And you can definitely taste that.
A wide range of Andeluna wines
Andeluna Winery was founded in 2003 with the vision of becoming one of the top wineries in Argentina. Among the mega-wineries in the Mendoza wine region, Andeluna is a true gem. The winery is located near the village of Gualtallery, near Tupugato, at an altitude of over 1,300 meters above sea level. The area is renowned in Argentina as one of the best regions for producing quality wines. All grapes come from the winery's own approximately 80 hectares of vineyards. As diverse as the Andeluna Cellars wines are, their character is uncompromising, impressive, and delicious. Thanks in no small part to the meticulous care and selection during winemaking, the entire Reserve and Grand Reserve range enjoys a high reputation worldwide.
After manual harvesting, maceration takes place at low temperatures. Fermentation takes place using natural and selected yeasts in controlled stainless steel tanks at temperatures around 26 degrees Celsius. The wine is aged in French oak barrels for three months and then bottled for at least another three months before release.
