Experience a wine of unparalleled beauty, born from the dream of Dutch business magnate Mijndert Pon. In 1992, he traded the corporate world for the vineyards and laid the foundations for Bodega Salentein. The majestic architecture, inspired by a cross and a cellar reaching depths of eight meters, speaks volumes about his vision. Fast-forward almost three decades, and Bodega Salentein is not only the crown jewel of Valle de Uco, a breathtaking wine region in Argentina, but also a symbol of perfection. And the Numina series? Nothing less than the pièce de résistance!
The Blend Behind Salentein Numina Gran Corte
The El Oasis vineyard, where centuries-old vines take root, is the source of the magic of Salentein Numina Gran Corte. This wine tells the story of five grapes, each contributing its own unique charm. While Malbec (2/3) forms the heart, Cabernet Sauvignon (18%), Merlot (11%), Cabernet Franc (5%), and Petit Verdot (2%) add their distinctive personalities. Each grape is carefully hand-picked under the watchful eye of the winemaker to ensure only the finest quality is blended.
Taste Perfection: Salentein Numina Gran Corte
Aged for 16 months in new French oak, Salentein Numina Gran Corte reveals a richness that captivates your senses. Expect a seductive nose of ripe plums and juicy berries, refined with a hint of vanilla. But the real magic begins upon sipping: velvety tannins, a palate rich in red fruit, and warm undertones of vanilla and oak. This is more than just a red wine; it's a masterpiece from Bodega Salentein, a wine that truly embodies perfection!
