Terroir

The Astica brand offers supreme value wines sourced from hand-harvested fruit from vineyards throughout the region of Cuyo; just to the east of the Andes Mountains.

Vinification

The Astica range of wines are fashioned to retain the natural freshness and ripeness of the grapes. Vinification takes place at cool temperatures in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.

Tasting Notes
