✨ Technical Specifications
Luigi Bosca's Gala collection represents a sophisticated, avant-garde approach to Argentine blending, where each numbered release explores a distinct varietal synergy. Gala 2 is a refined, Bordeaux-style red blend crafted from select high-altitude vineyards in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. This wine artfully combines the structure and deep dark-fruit character of Cabernet Sauvignon with the perfume and herbal complexity of Cabernet Franc, rounded out by the plush texture of Merlot. Sourced from older vines planted in rocky, alluvial soils, the grapes undergo meticulous selection before fermentation and subsequent aging in French oak barrels. The result is a deeply colored, complex red wine boasting notes of cassis, black pepper, graphite, and integrated oak, showcasing the Arizu family's multi-generational expertise in crafting structured, age-worthy wines.

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.
