The soils of Salentein's estates are shallow, alluvial and stony, with excellent permeability and low content of organic matter. Balanced vines, trellis-trained in bilateral cordon, with low production as well as efficient drip irrigation control and optimum ripeness. Prime conditions for producing Malbec.
