A Lisa Red Wine 2022
Patagonia • Bodega Noemía
"Sophistication from Patagonia: a Malbec with an artisan's soul that stands out for its electric freshness, floral elegance, and a fruit transparency unique in the world."
The Malbec of the Blue Desert
Born in the Valle Azul of Río Negro, A Lisa is the entry-level wine from the prestigious Bodega Noemía. Under the guidance of Hans Vinding-Diers, this red is an ode to precision viticulture in the desert. Leveraging the constant winds and the thermal amplitude of Patagonia, A Lisa reinterprets Argentine Malbec through a lens of freshness, minerality, and a "chalky tannin" structure found only in these alluvial and calcareous soils.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What makes the A Lisa Malbec from Patagonia different?
Unlike Malbecs from Mendoza, A Lisa comes from a cool climate in Río Negro. This results in a more vertical wine, with less alcohol, a vibrant acidity, and highly marked floral and mineral notes.
Is A Lisa an organic wine?
Yes, Bodega Noemía follows organic and biodynamic practices in its vineyards, seeking the maximum purity of the terroir and absolute respect for the Patagonian desert ecosystem.
What does it mean to be a "cool-climate wine"?
It means it comes from an area with temperatures lower than average, which allows for slower ripening of the grape, preserving acidity and delivering more floral aromas than wines from warm areas.
Is it recommended to decant A Lisa 2022?
It is not strictly necessary, as it is a very fluid and expressive wine, but 15 minutes of aeration can help the mineral and violet notes unfold with greater clarity.
