Today, they boast 60 hectares in the Uco Valley, as well as properties in Alto Agrelo and further north in the Calchaquíes Valley, Salta. The vineyards are sustainably managed, with no chemicals used in either the vineyards or the winery. Winemaker Sebastián San Martin adopts a minimalistic approach, allowing the grapes to express themselves and focusing on the purity of fruit with minimal intervention. Their offerings include the Reunion and MDZ wines, in addition to a selection of reserve wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reunion Malbec is produced from a sustainably farmed, single estate vineyard situated in Los Sauces, Mendoza.
