Penedo Borges Wines
At our Riverside Wine Festival at Talbooth Restaurant, we offered wine lovers a deeper exploration into Mendoza to experience not just captivating terroir expressions in her single vineyard malbecs, but also expressions of those varietals for which the region is less known: chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, syrah and cabernet franc. That exploration lay in the wonderful Penedo Borges Bodega Boutique, situated in the distinguished Alto Agrelo, Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, where some of the countrys finest winegrowing soils can be found.
"All come from Penedo Borges, a state-of-the-art boutique bodega in Agrelo, Luján de Cuyo, a sub-region of Mendoza, Argentina. Here, at 1050 metres in the foothills of the Andes, its both sunny and cool, perfect conditions for harvesting fully ripened grapes with great colour, structure and freshness."
