Winemaker Notes
Vineyard:
The grapes are sourced from the Maipú district of Mendoza at about 2,600 feet above sea level. The 24
year-old vineyards receive plenty of warm, sunny days, cool nights and a mild harvest which allow for
gradual ripening and optimum level of maturity. Hand tended and hand harvested, the Rutini family's
high altitude vineyards provide the foundation for Trumpeter.
