TIERRA MANSA - Valle de Uco - A Private Vineyard Estate Community – In Harmony with Nature

Imagine owning one of the finest managed vineyard properties anywhere, with your own custom-designed villa surrounded by acres of lush Malbec vines. Wake up each morning to vibrant views of the pastoral countryside, with air so clear you feel like you can reach out and touch the mountains.

Tierra Mansa is located on Route 94, Manzano Historico, in the heart of Valle de Uco. Valle de Uco is a unique place in the world, recognized as one of the 8 Great Wine Capitals, with a pristine environment and ideal year-round weather. Here you can enjoy a magnificent carefree lifestyle at an affordable price while your estate appreciates in value. 

We began Tierra Mansa with an idea of tranquility and natural beauty in a blossoming wine country. We found the ideal virgin property in the glow of the glacier-draped Andes. Then we set about creating a special place in harmony with nature. We invite you to share it with us.

Tierra Mansa North - Expansive 3.5 to 5.5 hectare (8.75 to 13.75 acre) vineyard estate lots. All infrastructure—roads, electricity, drip irrigation and potable water— are installed. A caretaker lives on the property full-time. Only two vineyard estate lots remain for sale, so we urge you to contact us as soon as possible to secure you share of this special place in the world.

Tierra Mansa South – Planted Malbec vineyards and Luxury Home options for vacation or business retreats, plus significant rental income when you can't be there to enjoy it. 
10% plus returns possible in the first year of rental. Luxury villa homes, ready to build, range in size from 150 m2 (1,635 square feet) to 250 m2 (2,725 square feet). We have six model homes to choose from, 3 single story, and 3 two-story. These homes can also be customized to fit your needs, or we can design your home from scratch. 

We expect construction costs to rise 10% to 20% by the end of the year 2011, but we are holding our construction costs stable for our big pre-launch event at the end of November. We can do this due to the volume of building we do. This is money in your pocket if you start your project soon.

Pre-launch event pricing starts at $50,000 USD for a 1.5 acre lot (approximately 6,000 m2), planted with Malbec vineyard, including drip irrigation, potable water, electricity, and a private home site ready to build. Lot sizes range from approximately 1.5 acres to 3.5 acres (approximately 14,000 m2). Offer good until November 15, 2011.

Want to add a Luxury Home? Pricing starts at $235,000 USD: This includes your 1.5 acre lot planted with Malbec vineyards, AND your Luxury Villa Home (150 square meters/1,635 square feet). Larger home options are available. You will not find this level of value pricing in any top quality vineyard or mountain community anywhere else in the world.

TM update August 17, 2011 – We are planting Malbec vineyards on 6 more lots in TM South now. One luxury home is under construction and more are on the way. Water (irrigation and potable) and electricity are available to all lots. We've planted more than 350 Alamos trees as part of the landscaping for the new main entrance that will begin construction this spring, along with our clubhouse and reception area. We want to welcome SanCo S.A., Mendoza's top construction company to our team. SanCo will be constructing the clubhouse plus several new homes in TM South in the coming months. Click Here to see current TM photos.

Our quincho in TM North is Asado Heaven. Really, there is not a more beautiful tranquil place to enjoy a classic Argentine barbecue with an array of salads, fresh breads, and the finest wines of Valle de Uco. We fire up the grill every weekend, kick back and catch rays on the sun deck, and for those hardy enough, you can swim in the spring water represa. If you are looking for a vacation home location—With stunning mountain and vineyard views— you can't beat TM.

Private Label Winemaking and Vineyard Management -Turnkey services offered by Southern Cross Land Management 

We can create your custom vineyards from scratch. Crafted from the perfect Andean terroir, your one-of-a-kind vineyard will be developed by hand in harmony with the natural surroundings. The interaction of each vine with the soil, the spring water, the wind and sun forms the structure and nuances which make your vineyard unique. Then we are on hand to maintain your vineyards annually, with a management style aimed at producing high quality wines. 

Private Label Winemaking Option: Our agronomist and winemaker work as a team in your vineyard, which is where winemaking really begins. From planting, to pruning, to harvesting each vine by hand, no detail is too small in the pursuit of extraordinary results in your private label wines.
