Dear Member,
In 2019, this club was little more than an idea and a few pallets of wine.
We were testing trust. Testing logistics. Testing whether relationships built in Argentina could travel well and arrive honestly at your table.
Seven years later, we are no longer experimenting. We are building with intention.
Argentina is not simply a theme for us. It is part of the foundation of this club — the place where some of our longest conversations have happened, where harvests have been difficult and triumphant, and where trust has been earned vintage after vintage.
The 2026 Argentina Collection
This collection reflects that maturity.
Two wines in this lineup have appeared before:
-
Atypico, now in a new vintage
-
RD, also returning in a new vintage
The seasons have changed. The blends have shifted slightly. But the identity remains.
That continuity matters because it shows evolution rather than repetition.
The rest of the collection brings together producers who have become central to this club’s identity — not because they are fashionable, but because they are reliable and deeply committed to what they do.
Wines Shaped by Patience
In northern Argentina, patience defines everything.
One grower waits years before releasing wines, refusing to let the market decide when a bottle is ready.
This year, that means opening a 2018 vintage that has had time to settle and evolve, showing that the Calchaquí Valley is not only about power, but also about longevity.
Others work with the same conviction:
-
Minimal intervention
-
Quiet cellar work
-
Trust in the vineyard
That is how clean wines are made — when the vineyard does the heavy lifting and the cellar stays restrained.
Showing Contrast Across Argentina
To bring more contrast to this collection while maintaining consistency, we have added a Mendoza voice alongside the northern wines.
The difference is important:
-
The north brings structure and tension
-
Mendoza brings a different rhythm, altitude, and climate
Together, they offer a fuller picture of Argentina today.
Behind the Bottles
Behind every bottle here are friendships and long conversations.
There are projects that began with shared risk.
There are wines that continued despite personal loss.
There are producers who stayed loyal to their land instead of taking easier routes.
These are not transactional relationships.
They are ongoing collaborations built slowly over time.
A Collection That Reflects Growth
If 2019 marked the beginning, 2026 feels like the point where something settles into itself.
We are no longer proving that this club can exist.
We are showing that it can mature — that it can return to its roots without standing still.
Argentina remains our backbone.
And this collection is a reminder that when you build carefully, with the right people, time becomes an ally.
