✨ Technical Specifications
The De Sangre collection by Luigi Bosca represents a deeply personal chapter in the Arizu family history. Historically, these were the private reserve wines kept exclusively for family gatherings and shared only with close friends—literally meaning 'of the bloodline.' This Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from select high-altitude vineyards in Luján de Cuyo and Maipú, Mendoza, where the stony, alluvial soils and intense Andean sunlight yield grapes of remarkable concentration and structure. Crafted with traditional fermentation and aged in French oak barrels, this wine showcases the classic Argentine expression of Cabernet Sauvignon: robust yet elegant, with black fruit, cassis, subtle spice, and a distinctive mineral backbone.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1901 by Don Leoncio Arizu, Bodega Luigi Bosca is a benchmark of Argentine viticultural excellence located in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. Guided by over a century of family heritage and pioneering spirit, the estate played a pivotal role in the creation of Argentina's first Controlled Denomination of Origin (DOC Luján de Cuyo) in 1989. The winery meticulously cultivates premier high-altitude vineyards across Mendoza's prime terroirs, focusing on sustainable practices and precise micro-terroir vinification. Luigi Bosca is globally celebrated for its elegant, structured Malbecs, exceptional Cabernet Sauvignons, and distinguished single-vineyard bottlings such as the iconic Finca Los Nobles series.
