✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the historic Finca Los Nobles estate in Las Compuertas, Luján de Cuyo, this exceptional red is crafted from ancient, ungrafted vines planted at an altitude of over 1,050 meters. The wine is a traditional field blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc—historically referred to in Bordeaux as 'Bouchet'. These companion varieties are harvested and co-fermented together, a traditional practice preserved by the pioneering Arizu family. The terroir's sandy-loam soils, combined with cold nights and intense Andean sunshine, yield a wine of remarkable structure, deep complexity, and refined elegance, aged gracefully in French oak barrels to harmonize its intense dark fruit and savory spice notes.
🍾 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.
