Description
This is a new winery which has been recently bought by Nieto. Tunuyan is situated in the Uco Valley where winemaker Santiago Mayorga has access to some of the best vineyard sites in Mendoza. The focus is on small productions of high quality wines. 50% of this wine is fermented and aged for between 8-12 months in French oak barrels.
On the palate, this wine’s minerality really shines through where a defined steely character marries nicely with lemon and green apple fruit. A clean, textural finish beautifully balanced by fresh acidy. Trout, river fish, sole, lobster, seafood, cheese fondue, chicken in citrus sauces, rabbit and salmon stuffed pasta all make a great match!
