✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the historic clay-loam soils of Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza's premier wine-growing region, the Luigi Bosca Single Vineyard Malbec is a testament to the Arizu family's pioneering spirit. Sourced from select old-vine parcels situated at an elevation of nearly 1,000 meters, this wine showcases the deep-rooted heritage of Argentine Malbec. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a meticulous selection process before aging in French oak barrels for 12 to 14 months. This traditional approach coaxes out a remarkably elegant profile, defined by intense aromas of ripe red fruits, black cherry, and signature violet notes, underpinned by a refined structure and sweet, velvety tannins that have defined the estate's signature style for over a century.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1901 by Don Leoncio Arizu, Bodega Luigi Bosca stands as a cornerstone of modern Argentine viticulture. Steered across four generations by the Arizu family alongside head winemaker Pablo Cúneo, the estate was instrumental in defining Argentina's fine-wine identity and establishing the landmark Luján de Cuyo DOC in 1989. While universally celebrated for red expressions, the bodega boasts a venerable reputation for white and sparkling vinification, drawing fruit from prized high-altitude holdings across Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. Sited on alluvial, gravel-strewn Andean soils, these vineyards benefit from sharp diurnal shifts that preserve vital natural acidity. The cellar balances technical precision with restrained French oak aging to deliver whites and traditional-method sparklers marked by aromatic clarity and energetic structure. Signature whites—including the De Sangre White Blend, Finca Los Nobles Chardonnay, and crisp iterations of Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gewürztraminer—epitomize the estate’s hallmark poise, mineral drive, and enduring Andean freshness.
