ENRIQUE FOSTER
A brand new winery set amongst the vineyards of Lujan de Cuyo, Enrique Foster has taken little time to make a big impression on the local and international wine scene. The Spanish-American owner has declared it his ambition to create the best malbec coming out of Argentina and for this reason they produce nothing else but this dark varietal that seems to have found its home in this vineyard zone a half an hour south of Mendoza city. With vines more than 80 years old and the winemaking genius of Mauricio Lorca, Foster have so far not disappointed. Their three lines, the young and fruity Ique, lush Reserva and big hearted Edition Limitada are all superb wines. The mid range Reserva is garnering the most attention however for its super intensity and near perfect harmony of fruit and wood. The winery is not open to tourism but visits are allowed by the winery`s discretion.
