Broadly speaking, it can be split into two macro-units: the foothills to the west (running down to graben) and the plains of L\u0153ss (lime) to the east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">foothills<\/span> are a combination of various alluvial \u2018<span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">fans<\/span>\u2019 with very steep slopes (up to 4%). These are gravel soils, interspersed with a network of streams and natural drainage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These fans can be split into two families: those formed by rivers springing from the main mountain range (<span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Tunuy\u00e1n<\/span>) which therefore transport coarse alluvial and colluvial deposits as well as fine elements, and those (like <span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Chacayes<\/span>) that come from rivers descending directly from the frontal range, bringing only hard, coarse rock (granite, rhyolite, andesite, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The formation of the <span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Chacayes<\/span> fan can be divided in the three stages. First of all, during the Pleistocene, watercourses deposited granite, rhyolite and andesite pebbles belonging to the Choiyoi Group. Then, during the Holocene (a drier period) there came wind deposits of silt and fine elements, known as the Zampal horizon in reference to a local geographic formation. And finally, during the most recent period, we saw the appearance of transient watercourses that randomly displaced and deposited these fine elements (Zampal horizon), creating an extremely heterogeneous network of soils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guillermo Corona, the geologist who studied our soils, identified three different profiles, primarily determined by the depth of the loamy sand (<span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Zampal<\/span>) horizon. The <span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Arenoso alluvial profile<\/span> (horizon 1), with the richest soils on the estate, is best suited to our many white varieties. The <span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Arenoso fluvial profile<\/span> (horizon 2) creates moderate water stress that enables our Cabernet Sauvignon to ripen slowly. And finally, the<span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> fluvial profile<\/span> (horizon 3) where our fine Malbec and C\u00f4t terroirs can be found contains the estate\u2019s most meagre, extreme soils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although this study has enabled us to identify three sets of soils, it should be noted that the dense network of transient water systems means very frequent, rapid transitions from one soil type to the next. This<span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> heterogeneity in our soils<\/span> will affect ripeness even within a single plot. These ripeness gaps are the reason for the depth and comp<span style=\"color:#b38b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">lexity of our wines<\/span>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uco Valley is an asymmetrical valley running from north to south around the Tunuy\u00e1n River and its tributaries.
