"The wine is originated in the vineyard--it is born from the land and it is closely related to it", expressed Daniel Pi, chief winemaker at Trapiche.

Beginning with the famed 2003 vintage, Trapiche's chief oenologist and winemaker Daniel Pi and his team have chosen to, each year, select Mendoza's three best Malbec grape growers to communicate Trapicheos foundations: the richness of diversity. "When I visit our vineyards and grape growers, I realize that the richness of Trapiche lies there: the diversity of our varieties and terroirs," commented Daniel. "The Single Vineyard Malbec project continues to be one that is unique and very close to our hearts and our roots. Here are three stories that true expressions of place of origin, history, tradition, love and respect for soil and the Malbec grape." Viticutural Director, Marcelo Belmonte, said of the newest vintage, "This year, Trapiche demonstrates how women are also very much involved in the process of wine growing and how their contribution has been so extremely valuable". He continued, "We feel that women are more into details and a lot more demanding -- they do not stop until they meet their objectives!" exclaimed Belmonte. Trapiche's Daniel and Marcelo chose to distinguish the wines for the 2006 harvest from the vineyards of the following grape growers: ViSa Cristina y Bibiana Coletto, El Peral El Peral is a municipality located in the province of Cuenca, Castile-La Mancha, Spain.
