Terra Buena is a new range of excellent-value Argentine wines made by Patrick Campbell, owner-winemaker of Sonoma’s Laurel Glen winery. Patrick is in Argentina multiple times during the year to oversee vineyard management and to direct the Terra Buena project. The vineyards are owned by the Cabrini family, Italian immigrants who have been growing grapes in Mendoza for 100 years. This Tempranillo comes from a cool, 15-acre site of 60-year old vines in the Valle de Uco, about an hour south of Mendoza, home to Argentina's highest elevation vineyards -- and the perfect home for the early-ripening Tempranillo grape.  You'll love it!                                                  Julian Contreras -- Wine Street Import Specialist
