Country of Origin: Argentina
Location: Cafayate
People: Arnaldo Erchart & Michel Rolland, Owners & Winemakers
Michelle Rolland was first brought to Argentina and Cafayate
by Arnaldo Erchart in 1988. Seduced by
the remarkable potential of an old Malbec vineyard 6700 feet above sea level,
Michel and Arnaldo created a partnership to make the wines of San Pedro de
Yacochuya.
From the 60-year old vines of Finca Yacochuya in Valles
Calchaquies, the grapes are handpicked and the wines are aged in French oak
barrels. Yachochuya wines were the first
to be barrel-fermented in Argentina. These wines are the ultimate combination of the Finca Yacochuya
vineyard, the Etchart family’s grape growing knowledge in this unique
high-altitude region of Cafayate, along with the passion and expertise from one
of the world’s pre-eminent winemakers, Michel Rolland.
