Since its founding in 1883, Bodega Trapiche has stood at the forefront of Argentine winemaking, renowned for its relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence. With a deep respect for the land as their most valuable resource, Trapiche has combined traditional values with cutting-edge techniques, consistently pushing boundaries and redefining what’s possible in Mendoza. A true pioneer, Trapiche led the way in introducing French grape varieties, French oak barrels, and the production of micro-terroir wines—a testament to their commitment to precision and site expression. The Terroir Series Finca Ambrosia is a standout 100% Malbec, grown at a staggering 1300 metres above sea level in Gualtallary. That’s nearly halfway up Mt Cook, for perspective. This extreme altitude and proximity to the Andes bring incredible purity, vibrancy, and freshness to the wine, all while retaining Malbec’s characteristic richness and depth. It’s an energetic and expressive Malbec that beautifully showcases the power of altitude and terroir.

Serve with your favourite steak. The recommended serving temperature is 16-18 degrees.
