The Dedicado wines are made from the best hand-harvested fruit from the high-altitude Tupungato vineyards. Tupugnato is the northernmost sub-region of the Uco Valley in Mendoza, and it sits at 1,300 metres above sea level. The grapes benefit from large diurnal temperature variations which result in a longer growing season. Pedro Parra, the renowned Chilean soil mapping expert, consults on these vineyards.
Finca Flichman was founded in 1910 by Don Sami Flichman, who emigrated to Argentina from Łódz in Poland. He purchased property in Barrancas (southern Maipú) and planted vines on rocky, well-drained plots along the Mendoza River. It was Sami’s son Isaac who first began to make fine wine at the estate. Having received his oenology training in France, Isaac and winemaker Raúl de la Mota created ‘Caballero de la Cepa’, one of the first high-quality wines that garnered international awareness for premium Argentinian wines.
