Escala Humana is a small-scale, family-run artisanal producer in Tupungato, Mendoza’s Uco Valley, founded and owned by husband-and-wife team Ayelén and German Masera in 2015. They source sustainably farmed grapes from their vineyards in El Zampal and ferment them at Matías Michelini’s Passionate Winery. Natural fermentation and minimal intervention define the wines, reflecting a sustainable, low-intervention philosophy. With limited production focused on quality over quantity, the project is shaped by the hands-on work of German Masera and Matías Michelini.
