Malbec "Golden Reserve", Trivento, Mendoza, AR, 2017

Trivento is named for the three winds that influence its vineyards in Mendoza, Argentina: the Polar, a cold wind from the south; the Zonda, a warming western wind sweeping down off of the Andes; and the Sudestada, or southeast blow, which brings freshness from the Atlantic and Río Plata estuary to the vineyards. At the foot of the Andes, strains of vines originating in the Old World are at home with terroirs of generous sun and careful hands. Four hundred and twenty collaborators make Casa de los Vientos one of the main wine producing and exporting wineries in Argentina. Since 2013, Trivento has been the number 1 selling Argentine wine brand in Europe. The company owns 1,657 hectares of vineyards located mainly in the Maipú, Luján de Cuyo and Valle de Uco regions of Mendoza. This wide range of topographies and microclimates gives rise to a portfolio of wines that preserves the character of the Mendoza terroir. Trivento is a leader in sustainable initiatives. In 2013, it launched a cross-cutting project for the company's operation that included Sustainability at the center of its business model. From there, it adhered to the United Nations Global Compact and reports goals for the 2030 Agenda for the Sustainable Development Goals.
