Michelini i Mufatto
It is the project of Gerardo Michelini, his wife and winemaker, Andrea Mufatto and Manuel, the eldest son of the couple, also a winemaker. For years, they have been contributing to place the Michelini name, together with Gerardo's brothers, among the most prestigious winemakers in this part of the world. Their main concept is to demonstrate the purity, minerality, finesse and elegance of the Uco Valley terroir. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
