A bold and expressive Petit Verdot from the heights of Mendoza’s Valle de Uco, crafted to reveal the true character of one of the world’s most structured and aromatic red grapes.

Abismal Herencia Petit Verdot is part of the premium range from Proyecto Abismal, an independent Argentine wine project focused on authenticity, minimal intervention, and the pure expression of terroir.

Sourced from vineyards in Tupungato, Valle de Uco, this wine reflects the remarkable conditions of Argentina’s high-altitude viticulture. The region’s warm days, cool nights, and rocky alluvial soils allow Petit Verdot to develop exceptional concentration while preserving freshness and aromatic complexity.

Under the guidance of winemaker Pablo Peralta, this wine showcases the unique potential of Petit Verdot as a single varietal — powerful yet elegant, structured yet vibrant.
