About Ver Sacrum Monastrell

In ancient times, many tribes upheld a captivating tradition where young individuals were dispatched to establish a new settlement, thus initiating a cycle of life and renewal. This custom was known as "Ver sacrum," which in Latin signifies sacred spring, a name that has traversed through time, inspiring projects of creativity, art... and now, wine.

In Argentina, Ver Sacrum is the oenological endeavour of Eduardo Soler, a mountaineer and rescuer, along with friends known as "el team grenachista." A group bonded by their passion for wine, their aim is to champion varieties scarcely planted in the country, primarily those from the French Rhône, cultivated on a riverbed in Los Chacayes, Uco Valley, Mendoza, at over 1,100 metres above sea level.

Ver Sacrum Monastrell embodies this mountain philosophy and minimal intervention. Originating from a monastrell vineyard planted on limestone pebbles, this wine is crafted through manual harvesting, 100% whole clusters, semi-carbonic maceration for 4 days, and spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in unlined concrete eggs. Inspired by the southern Rhône and southern Spain, fermentation is completed without skins to achieve less extraction, preserving freshness and mineral elegance. After 6 months on lees in 3,000-litre concrete eggs and an additional 8 months in bottle, the result is a vibrant, fresh, and lively monastrell, with a minerality reminiscent of the hilltop where it originates. A true "mountain wine" that blends elegance and energy in equal measure.
