進口代理─阿根廷─「VASIJA SECRETA S.A.」葡萄酒

Situated at the entrance itself of Cafayate town in the province of Salta, Vasija Secreta S.A. stands out for being the oldest winery in the region and a pioneer in opening paths towards the export market from the Argentine North. 

Its origin dates back to the first half of the last century and it currently produces one million liters per year, becoming the traditional wine of Salta society, due to both its quality and the artisanal process of production. The justified fame of its vineyards is given by its location.

It is a Mesopotamia flanked by the brook Esteco and the Chusha river, in which a dry and sunny environment is combined with an underground humidity superior to the rest of the valley, which determines the different behavior of soils and strains. 

The Torrontes wines have a greater sun exposure due to their location in the high faldeos, while the vineyards of red vines run in the lowlands, rich in sediments and with average temperature. 

The winery has four lines: Vasija Secreta Lacrado (Torrontes and Malbec), Gata Flora (Sweet Torrontes, Malbec Rose, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Tannat and Bonarda), Reserve Gata Flora (Torrontes, Malbec and Tannat) and Vas (only Malbec). 

In collaboration with INTI, they have improved aspects related to environmental impact and efficiency in energy consumption, which has allowed them to achieve a positive impact on the competitiveness of the winery. 

All labels are exported. The destinations are Brazil, the United States, Germany, Canada, Peru, Bolivia, the United Kingdom, Australia, and France. They are currently interested in exporting to South Africa, Japan, and, in Latin America, to Paraguay.

Regarding their first export experience, Marcelo Cordova, owner of Pequena Vasija, commented the following: "We were very interested in the Brazilian market, and it took us two years of traveling and dealing with consulates until we managed to enter with a large distributor and supermarket. From then on, we haven't stopped growing.”

And he added the following about the profile of the winery: "We define ourselves as a winery with strong roots, with a very long path travelled, which tries to maintain traditions, but looks forward to the future with no fear of innovation. We are the winery that paved the way for wine recognition in Cafayate. We are backed by our background and our wines stand out due to both their quality and their careful presentation.”
