U N I Q U E in their kind
Argentine wines go beyond Mendoza. Throughout the country, unusual vineyards defy landscapes and latitudes to create unique wines.
In the Calamuchita Valley, La Matilde combines forest and mountain. In Trevelin, Chubut, Casa Yagüe overlooks the mountain range, while in Jujuy, the Yacoraite and El Bayeh wineries find their home among multicolored hills.
Further south, in Barreal, Cara Sur and Los Dragones flourish in the shadow of the cordillera. And in Patagonia, Otroña grows wines in an extreme corner of the world, where the cold marks the character of the grapes.
Even on the slopes of an extinct volcano, the Argentine terroir surprises. Unusual places that tell stories in every glass.

BLOOD RECIPES FOR MOTHERS DAY
There are always a few recipes passing down from generation to generation in every family. The ones we grew up devouring at our grandmother’s, the ones we still count on savoring at our mother’s on every family event, and the ones we also cook at home for our own children on any given celebration.

It is mother’s day here today. To honour mine I’ll share one of her blood recipes. This one is my favorite one, the rich and yummy chocolate marquise cake that I know it’ll make it to my birthday table every year, come what may, with - now too many - candles, from the baking hand of my beautiful Mamma.

Gluten Free Marquise de Mamá
Whisk 4 eggs with 4 generous spoons of sugar. Melt 100gr butter (bain marie) with 150gr od dark chocolate. Bake it for 15min in a medium oven (do not overcook). Top with a generous layer of dulce de leche, another one of whipped cream and a thick layer of italian meringue.

Happy Mother’s day to ours and all the incredible mothers out there!

On the pictures: our beautiful collaborator with her mom, granny and great grand mother. My mom and myself in Iguazu, my son and me in Punta del Este, in Bariloche and skiing in Mendoza. And Majo’s mother with her granddauthers.

From a blank sheet to impressive pieces

Great artists turn the blank sheet into art. This passionate journey of immersion, setting aside one's own thoughts, emptying oneself, and perceiving everything that happens without our intervention, to make way for a new creation.

Artist Eduardo Basualdo likes to imagine the idea that the blank sheet opens. As if that frame of the sheet were a portal, into which you can enter with your eyes but also projecting your body.

His work is a dialogue with space in physical or material and poetic terms, organized from issues related to mental space and real three-dimensional physical space.

From a young age, he found refuge in drawing. Within a large family, drawing was like a place of intimacy, of singularity. His installations reflect the genealogy established between art and childhood games. Those games with his siblings, shelters, dark rooms, wooden boxes, containers, all that organization of the world, the symbolic and inner, projected into possible space, with the impulse to organize three-dimensional space, sensations, and internal thoughts.

This is Eduardo Basualdo’s work, an outstanding local artist, trained in Fine Arts at the National Institute of Visual Arts (UNA), his talent has led him to exhibit in renowned institutions around the world, such as the Palais de Tokyo in Paris and the Venice Biennale. His works are present in public and private collections worldwide, from the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington D.C. to the Museum of Modern Art in Buenos Aires.

He is also exhibiting like many spectacular artists at Arte BA this week.

On our explorations of Volcán Galán, at over 5000 meters, we came across these elegant flamingos. The contrast between their grace and the arid landscape is a sight to behold.

From Barreal in San Juan province, in the comfort of our vehicle, we started by wading the Rio los Patos continued by forcing our low Subaru into the impossible hike of the Andes up to Las Hornillas and los Manantiales (where we enjoyed the great steaks made on our “disco”).
Colours were just an unexpected palette going from bright reds to a deep dark burgundy, contrasting with the black of the condors at flight. Here, the massiveness (and beauty) of the Andes is jaw-dropping and the mountains enclose you in a tight and profound hug.
It is impossible to get your mind around the fact: the Ejercito de los Andes from the hand of General San Martin, crossed these peaks over 200 hundred years ago in a heroic attempt to liberate our neighboring countries, achieving the definite expulsion of the Spanish from the region.
Our humble homage to commemorate General San Martin’s death celebrated today.

A perfect afternoon, PLAYING in the historic streets of San Telmo, where I strolled past antique and vintage markets. I couldn’t resist making a pit stop at Café San Juan, a laid-back gem with a talented chef dishing out a variety of delectable options, including some great veggie choices

In love with these masks of the Chané people, a small indigenous group with only 1,862 people remaining. Most of them live in seven communities in the San Martin department of Salta province.

The Chané go into the forest to look for wood to carve the masks for the celebration of the Arete, which is celebrated when the taperigua flowers bloom in the forest, until their flowers wither, for about 40 days.

These ceremonial masks, known as aña-aña, hold a profound significance, representing the essence of ancestral spirits, their identity. They serve as guardians, whispered to by the masqueraders to safeguard the families they adorn.

The Arete is prepared with musical pieces by instrumental groups. The masqueraders cover their heads, hands and feet so that no one can recognize them. They also wear large ponchos . When the time comes, the celebration begins with the instructions and harangues of the leader. During several days the big carnival is extended, where people dance and drink.

The masks stand as a timeless symbol of Chané artistry, preserving a rich heritage for generations to come. They used to be thrown away after the Arete but now they can be purchased.

EARTH- IT IS A TRULY HONOR TO BE HERE

I can’t find a better way to honor the earth than bringing to mind the organic products we recently tasted on our trip to San Juan. These are products with a local identity and overflowing with character, made by the hands of those who fully dedicate themselves to working the land in various ways, who live among the furrows, tend to the fields, listen to and understand the messages of nature: the seasons, the rainy periods, the planting days, and the harvest times.

These producers from the Calingasta Valley shared their knowledge with us, prompting us to recognize the worthiness of the land reflected in their organic products. Products that carry in their genes years of sacrifice, of taking risks, and above all, of listening to everything the land has to say. They are the real land whisperers.

Through the fields of .mi.campo Ricardo walked us along the richness of their herbs and spices, all cultivated without preservatives nor artificial additives. Their rose tea is a must among many other naturally scented options.

The production of the Valley continued to gift us local flavors. The “goat provoletita” from Quesos Yllia was to die for and my favorite. We learnt, to our amusement, that goat’s milk closely mirrors the composition of human milk.

We visited .barreal to taste the spectacular Pergola wine, made collaboratively with the local community from grapes belonging to various vineyards in town owned by neighbors and friends. The wine is aged in concrete barrels to preserve the terroir’s characteristics.

These dedicated products authentically reveal the character and culture of this Andean town, reclaiming the heritage of the valley’s ancient vineyards and traditional farming methods.

Thanks for sharing your meaningful way of empowering the identity of your soil and region.
