Visit and tastings of Bodega Belasco de Baquedano
Your host:

The vines were planted in 1910 on soils of alluvial origin with a stony basement and sandy-limestone-clay sediments. This, combined with a high planting density and the work of our technical team, guarantees very low yields and high quality grapes, with all the properties and characteristics typical of the Malbec grape variety. In parallel with the restoration of the vineyards, various maintenance practices are applied during the growing cycle to ensure optimal quality of the berries. Strict manual selection is also made at the vineyard, followed by a second manual selection in the cellar, in order to use only the best clusters for the production of our wines. For example, the cellar is equipped with a cold room to adapt the berries. temperature after sampling and manual selection line. The grapes are incubated by gravity, without pumping, to ensure that the berries arrive intact in the vat. The winemaking is carried out in French oak vats and small stainless steel vats, with cold and hot temperature regulation.
