Discover James Suckling’s reviews of Rutini Wines during his visit to the winery.<\/span><\/h5>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

James Suckling<\/a> visited the Rutini Wines winery in the Uco Valley.\nThere he was tasting wines for his report and renewed his passion for Mendoza and Argentine wine. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

During his last visit to Argentina, the famous English critic and his team were particularly impressed by the foothills of the Andes.\nTouring vineyards at over a thousand meters above sea level, feeling first-hand the extreme conditions of this arid and imposing climate is a way to directly perceive the energy that is then tasted in each glass of these wines whose unique and vibrant texture is directly related to the soil from which they come. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

During two weeks the team tasted more than 1,800 bottles and found exceptional wines: chardonnays that compete with the best in the world, complex and subtle malbecs, cabernet francs and cabernet sauvignon, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Suckling is convinced that it is very fortunate that Argentine wine has earned much of its reputation from Malbec.\nIt is a very versatile grape, which allows the production of excellent quality wines in different ranges: from lighter and livelier wines, to complex and subtle wines that have the strength that a top of the line pinot noir could have. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

Although Mendoza is the undisputed center of Argentine winemaking, Suckling also highlights the potential of Patagonia, where first-class pinot noirs and chardonnays are beginning to emerge.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

The latest trends confirm that the terroir is prevailing: single vineyards and parcel wines represent some of the best exponents of this Suckling report.\nEach parcel of these unique lands, in combination with the variations in climate each year and the hand of the producers are the starting point for some of the best wines in the world.\nIn that sense, the 2017 and 2018 production is expected to be truly exceptional. <\/span><\/p>\n\n
