Bodega Malma

Founded in 2001 and boasting an architecturally avant garde headquarters, Malma was bought by the Viola family in 2019, through the company La Inversora SA, a real estate consortium from Neuquén who is a leading player in the development of San Patricio del Chañar. Malma means “pride” in Mapugundún, the Mapuche language. Advised by the South African oenologist Hans Vinding Diers, they changed the house style to focus on more precise reds and whites and better aging processes. The winery possesses 127 hectares under cordon-trained vine and is located in the heart of the valley, where the soils are mostly clay. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir form the core of their output; however, they are exploring the potential for Malbec and Merlot and are planning to expand their vineyards to the foot of the Barda. Their brands are Malma, Malma Reserva, Universo and Rara Avis, the latter a project that focuses on innovation. The pretty restaurant overlooks the vineyards.
