✨ Technical Specifications
Luigi Bosca's Extra Brut is a sophisticated sparkling wine crafted using the traditional Champenoise method, showcasing Mendoza's exceptional capacity for high-altitude sparkling wine production. Sourced from select cool-climate vineyards in Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, the grapes benefit from intense Andean solar radiation and cool night temperatures, preserving vital acidity and developing delicate aromatic complexity. The wine undergoes its secondary fermentation in the bottle and is aged on its fine lees, which imparts a creamy texture, fine persistent bubbles, and complex autolytic notes of toasted brioche and dried fruits, beautifully balanced by fresh citrus and white peach aromas. This sparkling wine represents the Arizu family's long-standing dedication to European traditions adapted to the unique terroirs of Argentina.
🍾 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.
