DECERO
Finca Decero is a single estate vineyard and the brainchild of Thomas Schmidheiny, a Swiss business magnate with a deep passion for wine. Schmidheiny bought a bare patch of land on a hillside in Agrelo, Mendoza after falling in love with the region during a motorcycle trip from Chile into the Andes. His new venture, “De Cero”a.k.a “from scratch” is now a flourishing vineyard which is immaculately managed by hand from vine to barrel. Decero was joined by head winemaker Juan E. Marcó in 2007, who has embraced Schmidheiny’s vision for a sustainably farmed, world class estate.

Cabernet
Decero Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic in style, with cedar graphite and cassis notes reminiscent of Bordeaux. The wine veers towards elegance and balance rather than opulence and power. Located at 3500 feet, in the renowned Mendoza appellation of Agrelo, our one-of-a-kind Remolinos Vineyard takes its name from ‘remolinos’ – whirlwinds which keep the grapes dry and in perfect condition before being handpicked each vintage.

A soft and juicy cabernet with currant and raspberry aromas and flavours. Medium body. Easy finish. Delicious.

Malbec
Leafy notes on the nose blend with blackberry jam. This wine is medium-bodied and has a herbaceous character, with soft flavours of black fruit and tobacco."Located at 3500 feet, in the renowned Mendoza appellation of Agrelo, our one-of-a-kind Remolinos Vineyard takes its name from ‘Remolinos’ – whirlwinds which keep the grapes dry and in perfect condition before being handpicked each vintage. The hallmark style of Malbec from Remolinos Vineyard shows the intense violet aromatics and bright freshness and acidity which has come to define Decero Malbec. Elegant tannin complexity reflects beautifully integrated oak tannins following 14 months in French oak."
92 Points, James Suckling (previous vintage)
Cacao, fresh blackberries and blueberries with hints of violets and lemon zest. This fresh quality to the blue and black-fruit character extends to the palate, showing fluidity, coherence and drinkability. Lovely now, but will hold for a few years, too.

Rivera Marese - 2024
Rivera created a wine that expresses the character typical of Bombino Bianco grapes,normally used in blending with other varieties. The advanced degree of ripeness of the grapes is balanced by the good acidity typical of this variety, resulting in a wine with intense and complex aromas and excellent drinkability and freshness that are well expressed in combination with appetizers and fish dishes.
Raats Original Chenin- 2023
Distinctive yellow apple, kiwi fruit and pineapple core, alongside notes of green melon and limes. The wine is thus bursting with fresh fruit flavours. The wine has a zesty citrus flavour that lingers on the palate, with a long mineral finish. Serve with mild curry dishes, sushi or oysters.
Côte 228 Pech Clamensou Chardonnay - 2023
Côte 228 is a well-balanced wine with rich oak aged character. This complex wine shows generous fruit aromas such as crisp pears and a mineral finish. A classic Burgundian style French Chardonnay which will pair beautifully with seared scallops or a duck terrine.
Caraghuiles Cochon Volant Rouge - 2023
Vibrant and bright aromas of pomegranate, raspberry, fresh herbs and purple flowers all showcase the elegance of this bottling. The palate offers juicy red cherry and raspberry supported by fine tannins, with a perfect pop of acidity on the long finish.
Finca Decero Remolinos Vineyard Malbec- 2021
Cacao, fresh blackberries and blueberries with hints of violets and lemon zest. This fresh quality to the blue and black-fruit character extends to the palate, showing fluidity, coherence and drinkability. Lovely now, but will hold for a few years, too.
Map Maker Pinot Noir - 2023
This Pinot Noir has lovely aromas of ripe black cherries and wild violets. In the mouth the wine has a grainy tannin structure and is intensely flavoured with sweet cherries, cedarwood and savoury characters such as dried herbs and wild game flavours. This is a sophisticated Pinot Noir with an ‘old world’ elegance and mineral lingering finish.
