Ugarteche
Ugarteche is a small subregion of Mendoza within Lujan de Cuyo. Now known for Malbec and Carbernet Sauvignon, the district was historically planted with grapes for juice varieties and mass produced wines. At 3000 feet above sea leval, diurnal temperature variation extends the ripening period, balancing sugar and acidity. (Wine/Appellations)
