✨ Technical Specifications
Luigi Bosca's 'De Sangre' collection represents a deeply personal chapter in the winery's history, named in honor of the wines historically reserved for the founding Arizu family's private consumption—literally meaning 'of blood' to signify family heritage. The De Sangre Malbec is crafted from meticulously selected parcels in Mendoza's premier high-altitude subregions, including Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. This wine showcases the classic typicity of Argentine Malbec, combining the intense black fruit and floral violet notes of the Uco Valley with the structural elegance and sweet tannins characteristic of Luján de Cuyo. Aged in oak barrels, it reflects a harmonious balance of traditional Argentine winemaking and modern precision, delivering a complex, full-bodied red with remarkable depth and a sense of place.
🍾 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.
