Ecosystems
Salto comes from the Mantineia Region. Vines are planted on sandy soils at high elevation. It is produced from a single clone of Moscofilero, called Mavrofilero. This clone has darker skins, almost black in color. Ripening occurs at a different stage than Moscofilero and gives a different flavor profile and structure.
