And the Winner of the Japan Wine Challenge 2016 is...Argentinean!

private-food-tours-in-Buenos-Aires-Pyros-best-Malbec-of-the-Japan-challengYes an Argentinean Malbec Wine won the award for the best non-European wine, beating heavy players from all over the world.

The winner is a boutique wine from the Pedernal Valley, an unkown -even for us- area of San Juan province, in the west side of Argentina. The valley is at an altitude of 4600 feet (1400 meters), why a dry and stony soil, with lots of silica (Pedernal jeans flint). It is not easy to access there, just across a narrow canyon between the Andes mountains and the Pedernal peak. Anyway that soil can hold water and the water is running under the surface all around the valley. There is also a wide temperature range, so all this elements, -soil, water, weather- brings the perfect combo for a wine like this; Intense and endowed with a great freshness and an different aromatic and flavor profile.

The producers are named Pyros Wineries as a reference to the stones (The Aboriginal used to light their fires with flints)

The award will be given in November 14th at the International Wine Expo of Tokio from the hands of His Imperial Highness Princess Takamado. Wow! I want to try it right now! I hope we can find this wine in any of my private food tours across Buenos Aires!
