✨ Technical Specifications
Nieto Senetiner's 'Believe in Rose' represents a contemporary and playful chapter in the historic winery's storied legacy. By blending Argentina's signature bold Malbec with the delicate, cool-climate loving Pinot Noir, the winemakers have crafted a pale, dry, and incredibly refreshing rosé that challenges traditional perceptions of Mendoza. The grapes are sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Mendoza, where the intense alpine sunlight is balanced by cool mountain nights. This thermal diurnal range allows the Pinot Noir to retain its bright, crisp acidity and subtle red berry notes, while the Malbec contributes structure and vibrant floral aromas. The wine is fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks to preserve its delicate aromatics and pristine fruit profile, resulting in a chic, modern rosé that captures the youthful energy of Argentina's evolving wine scene.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1888 by Italian immigrants in Vistalba, Bodega Nieto Senetiner stands as one of the historic pillars of Luján de Cuyo viticulture. Acquired by the Nieto and Senetiner families in 1969 and integrated into Molinos Río de la Plata in 1998, the estate commands prime holdings across Vistalba and Agrelo, including Finca Villa Blanca and Finca Las Tortugas. Situated between 950 and 1,150 meters above sea level against the Andean backdrop, the vineyards thrive on alluvial clay-loam and gravelly soils subjected to wide diurnal temperature shifts and intense high-altitude sunlight. Winemaker Santiago Mayorga crafts both classic reds and pristine, aromatic whites and rosés with modern precision. While globally acclaimed for benchmark Malbec and heritage Bonarda, the estate demonstrates deft mastery of aromatic and refreshing profiles through everyday and fruit-forward ranges such as Benjamín, Fran, and Emilia, preserving pure varietal expression, vibrant natural acidity, and refined balance across Torrontés, Moscatel de Alejandría, Sauvignon Blanc, and Chardonnay.
