If I had the chance to drink only one wine, it would be Malbec but professionally I love to work with a good Sauvignon Blanc because this variety is a great challenge for Mendoza" says Argento Winemaker Silvia Corti.

Developing a passion for winemaking was a logical consequence of growing up in Mendoza and Silvia's introduction to wine came as a young girl, at her grandmother's country house in Agrelo, "We made wine, mainly for the family, and I really enjoyed it, helping the grape pickers and filling the bottles when the wine was ready."

Silvia's love of wine is rooted in its social aspects. As she puts it, "It has always intrigued me to watch people engage their

senses. When you make a wine people like, it's so satisfying, because it means that you have accurately interpreted what they want."
