• Background:

To Life!Alavida, a Spanish riff similar to the Hebrew toast L’Chaim! is an invitation to people everywhere to come together and share in the simple joys of good food and wine. Argentina is a nation rich in diversity and our multi-cultural family at Domaine Bousquet has been making certified organic wines in Argentina since 1997, when we began planting vines in the upper reaches of Tupungato’s cool-climate Gualtallary area.

Winemaking:

• The word Kosher translates as “fit or proper.” Kosher foods, including wine, are produced under certain biblical rules of Judaism.
• These norms, regulate what is referred to as the composition of the food, and its handling.
• Handling throughout the production process can only be carried out by religious Jews under the guidance of a Rabbi.
• Although our kosher wines are produced with our unique style and techniques, we cannot directly handle them.
• Our winemaking team is in constant contact with the Rabbi and his team throughout the winemaking process.
• Hand harvested between the end of March and beginning of April. Traditional method of elaboration.
• Fermentation with selected yeast at a maximum temperature of 27C/81F for 12 days in stainless steel tanks.
• By not adding SO2, characteristics identified with the high-altitude, cool-climate terroir of Mendoza’s Uco Valley, are strengthened and enhanced.
• The purity of fruit, aroma, flavor, and freshness become yet more pronounced.
• Fruit has to be of superb quality, with great concentration, for the wine to remain stable without the presence of SO2.
