Salta

Defining the 2024 vintage in Salta requires looking beyond the averages, as it was a year of contrasting fortunes and precise timing.

Summer conditions were balanced, oscillating between warm spells and refreshing intervals that kept the ripening on a steady track. A key factor was the dramatic diurnal shift (14.1°C), ensuring that despite the daytime warmth, acidities remained razor-sharp.
