Matías, is a native Argentine born in Cafayete that has travelled and harvested at countless wineries around the world. For over a decade he has been collecting experience and now is dedicating himself to learning as much as possible from the various terroirs of Mendoza he now looks after. His father, Jorge Riccitelli, was the first Latin American to be elected "Winemaker of the Year 2012" (Wine Enthusiast) and without a doubt is a huge mentor for his son's fresh enthusiasm. The Winery is settled in the heart of Vistalba, in the region of Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza. Today Riccitelli Wines manages 20 hectares, divided in three different vineyards at the foot of the Andes Mountains between 980 and 1120 m.a.s.l. Most of those vineyards were planted at beginning of 20th century. It doesn’t stop there though, he also makes a few wines even higher up down in the Patagonia.
The Riccitelli Hey Malbec! is a very stylish Malbec, with beautiful aromas of wild dark fruits, vanilla and chocolate in the nose. 100% fruit from Lujan de Cayo, this is a complex and rich wine with smooth ripe tannins and a long finish.
