At the southernmost point of Argentina's bustling wine culture sits Patagonia, with its isolated and expansive vineyards, breathtaking views, and incredible potential to make some of the world's best wines. It's the home of Bodega Noemia, a winery founded by Countess Noemi Marone Cinzano of Tuscany's Brunello di Montalcino, and Danish winemaker Hans Vinding-Diers. They arrived in Patagonia, fell in love with the place and purchased some old vineyards on limestone, sand and gravel soils that form the core of their estate. A Lisa is named after Han Vinding Diers' Danish grandmother and sourced from villages within 40 miles of Mainqué in Río Negro, so it's their village red. They had frost in the zone in 2018 and yields were decimated, so production plummeted from 90,000 to 70,000 bottles. This is mostly Malbec with some 9% Merlot and perhaps 1% Petit Verdot, the whole berries fermented in stainless steel; only 15% to 20% of the volume matured in used French oak barrels for some nine months, while the rest was kept in stainless steel. It has clean aromas and a round, juicy palate and is tasty, long, and dry.
