Luigi Bosca Winery was founded in 1901 by Leoncio Arizu, making it Argentina's oldest family-owned winery. Its vineyards are located in the promising region of Mendoza, and the company utilizes extensive innovation to achieve the highest quality. Today, the third and fourth generations of the Arizu family are at the helm. They have mastered the desert climate and terroir to create beautiful wines. Thanks to these conditions, the wines develop extra aromas and color, and the acidity is always beautifully balanced.
The Sauvignon Blanc grapes come from Luigi Bosca's own vineyards in Maipa and Valle de Uco, Mendoza. The vines are on average 20 years old and are planted at an altitude of 780 meters, ideal for ripening the grapes. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand at two different levels of ripeness. After harvesting, the grapes are selected and destemmed. The must is decanted into tanks for 24 hours and fermented in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius. After alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine rests on the fine lees for another six months.
This Sauvignon Blanc has a pale yellow color in the glass and delicate, expressive aromas. Wonderfully fruity with white and citrus flowers. All in all, a lively and refreshing wine. Balanced and full on the palate with a spicy character, it concludes with a lively finish.
