Description About Calisto Wines Calisto Wines is the personal project of renowned Mendoza winemaker Romina Carparelli, who, after more than 20 years crafting wines at iconic wineries such as Pulenta Estate and Vistalba, decided to take a bold step: creating her own wine, with her own voice.Romina does not seek to make wines for the masses or to chase awards. With Calisto, she aims to convey an intimate philosophy: authentic, elegant, and emotional wines, made without haste or preset formulas, respecting the character of the terroir and allowing each bottle to tell a story.Calisto wines are born in iconic sites of the Uco Valley, such as Altamira and La Consulta, worked with minimal intervention, native yeast fermentations, and carefully measured aging in French oak barrels. These are wines designed to evolve, surprise, and move—beyond trends or scores.When you drink a Calisto, you are not just enjoying an age-worthy Malbec; you are connecting with the most personal project of a woman who chose to stop making wines for others and begin speaking from her own essence. Calisto Malbec 2022 Calisto Malbec 2022 is the ultimate expression of this philosophy: an elegant, pure, and vibrant wine that captures the essence of the Mendoza terroir, crafted with passion and minimal intervention. "Violet-red in color with bright highlights, it reveals aromas of fresh black fruits, wild herbs, and mineral notes. On the palate, it shows firm yet rounded tannins, excellent acidity, and a long, fresh, and balanced finish. A Malbec that connects the land with the glass, created for those who appreciate the natural elegance and authenticity of the Uco Valley."
