Colonia Las Liebres is now an organic (certified) range, of which the classical 2019 Colonia Las Liebres Bonarda Clásica comes from a warm year. Almost six hectares were parral planted in 2007 and were the first to be certified organic. The wine keeps the freshness and has unusual floral and elegant aromas. It's 10% carbonic maceration in stainless steel, and the aging was in concrete. It's always around 13% alcohol. Over the years, this range has become less extractive and ripe. Still unbottled, it becomes more elegant with time in the glass.

Mendoza is a wine region located in Argentina, known for producing some of the world's finest Malbec wines. The region has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 16th century when Spanish colonizers first introduced grapevines to the area. Today, Mendoza is home to over 1,500 wineries, making it the largest wine-producing region in Argentina.

The style of production in Mendoza is heavily influenced by the region's unique climate and geography. The area is situated at the foothills of the Andes Mountains, which provide a natural barrier against the Pacific Ocean's cool winds. This results in a dry, sunny climate with large temperature fluctuations between day and night. These conditions are ideal for growing grapes with thick skins, which produce rich, full-bodied wines with intense fruit flavors.

The most popular grape variety grown in Mendoza is Malbec, which accounts for over 60% of the region's vineyards. Other red grape varieties grown in the region include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah. Mendoza also produces some excellent white wines, including Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Torrontés.

Overall, Mendoza is a must-visit destination for wine lovers looking to explore the world of Argentine wine. The region's unique climate and geography, combined with its rich winemaking history, make it a fascinating and rewarding place to discover new and exciting wines.
