Alpamanta
Wine production on the estate known as Alpamanta, Finca Von Wigstein, is rooted in European bio-dynamic vineyard cultivation and new world winemaking technology.
A bit of background
In the 18th century the noble family of Sayn Wittgenstein cultivated huge vineyards in Moldova, at the center of one of the world’s oldest and most traditional winemaking regions. Alpamanta’s CEO Andrej Razumovsky and his partner and cousin Andre Hoffmann, are direct descendants of that family. One of the more notable vintages of Côte de Provence comes from the Château de la Croix Bontar, owned for many generations by the family of Jérémie Delecourt, partner of Alpamanta.
Estate’s origin
In 2005 three close friends, Andréj Razumovsky from Austria, his cousin André Hoffmann from Switzerland and Jérémie Delecourt from France joined forces to establish a boutique winery in Mendoza, Argentina, in one of the New World’s best suited regions for grape cultivation.
Their mission:
To produce supreme wines in a single vineyard estate utilizing state-of-the-art organic/bio-dynamic methodology.
Alpamanta: what does it mean?
The word in the local native culture means “Love to Earth.” A key aspect of ancient Indian culture has always been to work and co-exist in harmony with nature and the environment. Our Terroir is of undisputed integrity and our biodynamic, ecological friendly vineyard farming the moving force of the operation.
