the wine
A Malbec and Pinot Noir blend sounds like a dare, but in cool Patagonia it works, marrying dark fruit and structure to a lighter, floral lift. A decade on, it has the mellow complexity only time gives. An unusual bottle for the drinker who has tried everything else.
tasting notes
Deep, bright red with violet hints. A complex nose of ripe red fruit, plum, sour berry and cassis with floral and spicy nuances, and vanilla and chocolate from long oak ageing. Sophisticated and elegant, with flavors that linger.

from Familia Schroeder.
Familia Schroeder farms the cool Patagonian desert of Neuquen, one of the southernmost serious wine regions on earth. During construction of the winery they unearthed a dinosaur fossil, which gave the Saurus wines their name. The cold, windswept climate lends their reds a freshness rare in Argentina.
