Luigi Bosca's 'De Sangre' tier represents wines born from the family's private selection, a tribute to the 'bloodline' and heritage of the Arizu family who have shaped Argentine viticulture since 1901. The De Sangre White Blend is a sophisticated, high-altitude white wine sourced from select vineyards in the Uco Valley, Mendoza, primarily Gualtallary and Tupungato. This blend artfully combines Chardonnay, Semillon, and Sauvignon Blanc. The Chardonnay is partially fermented in oak barrels to impart texture, structure, and subtle vanilla notes, while the Sauvignon Blanc contributes vibrant acidity and citrus aromas, and the Semillon adds a sleek, oily mouthfeel with hints of honey and white flowers. It is a brilliant representation of modern Argentine white winemaking, balancing richness with alpine freshness.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1901 by Leoncio Arizu, Bodega Luigi Bosca is one of Argentina's most historic and prestigious wineries, located in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. Still family-owned and managed by the Arizu family, the estate has played a pioneering role in Argentine viticulture, notably helping to establish the country's first D.O.C. (Luján de Cuyo) in 1989. The winery's philosophy centers on showcasing the unique high-altitude terroirs of Mendoza through meticulous vineyard management and precise winemaking. Luigi Bosca is highly celebrated for its elegant, structured red blends and single-vineyard expressions, such as the iconic Finca Los Nobles Cabernet Bouchet and Gala 1 Malbec, alongside expressive whites like the Gala 3 Viognier and Linda Chardonnay.
