Grapes for the Misterio Malbec are picked from the Barrancas region in southern Maipú, Mendoza. This particular vineyard is 150 hectares in size and is situated around 700 metres above sea level. The vines here are planted in rocky, well-drained plots situated along the south side of the Mendoza river. The vineyards sit at high altitudes, meaning that there are large temperature differences between day and night. This extends the growing season and helps to retain freshness and finesse in the wines.

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.
