From the architect. The building is a very simple structure. The aesthetic resources used to create this “telescopic barn” were minimal. The rhythmic growth  varied as internal functions,  allowing ventilation, illumination,  and the complete  presence of the winery in  the main  continuous interior.

The enclosure is a large concrete pool 100 meters long, with iron metal structure with  high compounds thermal insulation panels.

La winery faces  towards the west to east,  allowing  controlled sunlight, indirect lighting and  ventilation by  “Venturi effect” taking advantage of the predominant  Zonda winds.

As its growth reaches towards  the west,  the general body begins to submerged  into the mountain, until it remains at  barrel´s guard zone,  totally underground, wich increased thermal stability.

Upon etering, the social area has three views, wich each look out to three different themes. Towards the south, the vast vineyards that transcend into the Uco Valley;  to the west, the grand Andes Mountain range, and towards the inside, the perception of hole facilities. From here starts  the walking tour of the winery.
