UNO Rose

Antigal's UNO Rosé originates in Maipú, Mendoza's easternmost wine district, where alluvial soils and 600–700m elevation create diurnal temperature swings that preserve acidity in thin-skinned varieties. The winery sources Malbec fruit and employs extended skin contact—typically 12–18 hours—before cool fermentation in stainless steel, a technique that extracts color and mineral tension rather than relying on maceration length alone. The result is a rosé that prioritizes structure over sweetness: saline minerality and stone-fruit aromatics dominate, with tannin presence unusual for the category, signaling serious food intent rather than aperitif convenience. UNO represents Antigal's entry-level expression but retains the house's commitment to high-altitude precision.
