Manos Negras Red Soil Select Pinot Noir is a terroir-driven, organically produced red from the Altamira district of the Uco Valley, Mendoza , at an elevation of 4,000 feet. Created by Alejandro Sejanovich, arguably Argentina's most knowledgeable viticulturist and former vineyard director of Bodega Catena Zapata for 16 years, this is a wine of genuine altitude, minerality, and precision.
Why You'll Love It
Alejandro Sejanovich pioneered high-altitude vineyard planting in Mendoza and conducted ground-breaking research into the region's Malbec clones during his 16 years at Bodega Catena Zapata. Manos Negras is his personal project, and the Red Soil Select is its finest expression. Sourced from Altamira in the southern Uco Valley, one of Mendoza's most distinctive terroirs, the soils are a mosaic of sandy, silty, and stony ground that is naturally low in organic matter yet rich in minerals, limiting yields and fostering exceptional concentration of aroma and flavour. This is Argentine Pinot Noir with altitude, minerality, and genuine terroir character. Vineyard and Production Grapes are sourced from vineyards in the Altamira district at 4,000 feet elevation in the southern Uco Valley. Sandy, silty, and stony soils low in organic matter and rich in minerals naturally limit yields and concentrate flavour. Gentle destemming is followed by two days of cold maceration and whole berry fermentation with natural yeasts at a maximum of 22 degrees Celsius, with extensive punch-downs for the first seven days of a 12-day fermentation. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French 225-litre barrels with no new oak, adding texture without imposing oak character. The producer works organically. Vegan and vegetarian. ABV: 13.5%.
Tasting Notes
Autumn berry aromas, earthy and inviting, with flavours of bramble, chocolate, and plum with earthy spice. Precise, mineral, and genuinely expressive of its high-altitude origins.
Perfect Pairings

Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
