Bodega Miras is based near the city of Neuquén in Rio Negro province, Patagonia – about 800km south of Mendoza.

Rainfall here is minimal, with semi-desert conditions. Some vineyards do benefit from traditional irrigation from the Rio Negro river though. They work organic vineyards, use natural ferments but also – for now – use more commercial temperature control, gentle fining and filtration, moderate levels of sulphur. There is quite a bit of Trousseau and old vine Semillon planted in the region, as well as Pinot Noir.
