About the Winery:
Nestled in Luján de Cuyo—one of Mendoza’s premier regions for producing premium wines—Bodega Renacer was purposefully designed to craft high-end wines. Founded by Patricio Reich, a wine industry veteran since the late 1980s, his journey began as a partner and managing director at Viña San Pedro in Chile. Over time, his passion for winemaking deepened, inspiring him and his family to launch a new venture focused on creating exceptional wines. Established in 2003 at the base of the Andes Mountains, the winery features Tuscan-inspired architecture, pergolas, and Italian-style gardens—a tribute to its family heritage and a warm invitation to visitors. Bodega Renacer is driven by their key principles: a relentless pursuit of quality, a commitment to innovation, a strong family spirit, sustainability, and a dedication to specializing in Malbecs and Cabernets.

INGREDIENTS: 

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (113g)
  • 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate chopped (168g)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Butter and lightly flour 6 (4- to 5-ounce) ramekin dishes and place them on a baking sheet.
  2. Combine the butter and chocolate in a double boiler and melt over low heat, stirring until smooth. Or, place the butter and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high, stirring every 30-seconds until melted. Whisk together until smooth.
  4. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until the sides of the cakes are firm set but the center is jiggly. Let the cakes cool in the ramekin dishes for 1 minute.
  5. Place a small dessert plate over the top of each ramekin and carefully turn it over, inverting the cake onto the plate. Let stand for about 10 seconds, then remove the ramekin to unmold the cakes. Sift powdered sugar on top and garnish with berries, if desired. Serve immediately.
