Mision & Historia
Mission
ALTOS LAS HORMIGAS
"Ants Heights"
ALH mission is to build Quality trough a patient work.
In Mendoza we have found the place that we were looking for, a place where traditional values of Wine can be reinvigorated with a modern approach, to produce a unique, contemporary Wine.
We believe that our Mission here is to build, and to keep on building as this Terroir keeps responding to our work, and rewarding our work with its beauties.
"A job for Ants" is the Argentine say for humble, patient, extended work; therefore the Ant is our symbol and our good luck charm. We work with great pride, but we are aware that keeping an open mindset, humble enough to be always willing to learn new lessons, is the secret to grow as persons and as winemakers.
ALH is about exploring new and old ways of making wine, we study tradition, in order to innovate.
Our working method is the continuous effort to combine the care and dedication of a XV century Italian craftsman, together with cosmopolite knowledge of techniques and an eye open on Technological and Scientific advance. All this is devoted to the goal of delivering a Wine which is the cleanest, freshest expression of Mendoza Malbec, an expression of depth and authenticity.
We believe that Wine is produced partly by the talent of Nature and partly by the talent of Man; we believe that Wine can be a very pleasant example of a possible harmony between Man and Nature.
History
In 1995, Alberto Antonini, a well known Tuscan wine maker, and Antonio Morescalchi a young entrepreneur, took a trip to visit the major viticultural areas of Argentina.
They returned powerfully impressed by the potential of Malbec in the Mendoza appellation, and felt certain that they had found what they were looking for. The next step came that year and 216 hectars were bought in the the township of Lujàn de Cuyo.
Shortly after this, some other old time friends, enthused by the idea, joined the enterprise: Attilio Pagli, another well known Tuscan wine maker; Marco de Grazia, a well known negotiant of fine Italian wines; Alan Scerbanenko, a Italo-Swiss management counselor; and last, but not least, Antonio Terni, Italo-Argentine Bob Dylan aficionado, who produces top quality wines in the Marche region of Italy.
Nowadays we are amazed of how a society so numerous and diverse works so well and in such harmony.
