VINEYARD

Huichaira Vineyard:
A Vineyard Surrounded by Mountains

We’re located in the stunning Quebrada de Humahuaca, 2,700 meters above sea level and just 5 km from Tilcara. The view? Absolutely breathtaking. Our vineyard stretches over 4 sloped hectares, with all kinds of soil—some from the Huichaira River and others made up of stones and clay carried down from nearby hills. That mix gives us rocky soils up top, silty-clay in the middle, and sandy soils down below—perfect for growing vines with personality.

This is a family project fueled by love and led by the Nieva family, in partnership with the Mil Suelos team. Wine production is headed by the talented Alejandro “Colo” Sejanovich, with backup from Diana “Tana” Bellincioni. Our vineyard work is guided by agronomists Juan Prates and Nicolás Buitrago, and run on the ground by our amazing forewoman Lucia Diaz. We take full advantage of the area’s unique climate: lots of sunshine during the day, cool nights, and wide temperature swings that let the grapes ripen slowly and develop lots of flavor. Harvest goes from mid-March to mid-April.

WINES

Cielo Arriba: The Taste of Altitude

Since 2018, Cielo Arriba has been bringing the essence of Huichaira Vineyard to life. It’s a unique blend of 80% Malbec, 13% Syrah, and 7% Cabernet Franc, aged for 12 months in used French oak barrels and another year in the bottle. The name celebrates the region’s sunny skies.

Coming soon: new wines from our Pinot Noir and Sémillon vines that are thriving in this rugged terrain.
