✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by the historic Nieto Senetiner winery, the Benjamin Colección Tardía Dulce Rosado represents a playful and sweet expression of Mendoza's viticultural bounty. Named in tribute to the pioneering spirit of the Nieto family, the Benjamin range focuses on fresh, fruit-forward wines designed for immediate enjoyment. This late-harvest ('Tardía') rosé is crafted from red grapes left on the vine to bask in the intense, high-altitude Argentine sun, allowing the sugars to naturally concentrate. The resulting wine captures a delicate balance of natural sweetness and refreshing acidity, reflecting the pure meltwater irrigation of the Andes and the winery's century-long expertise in tailoring wines to the rhythms of the Luján de Cuyo terroir.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1888 by Italian immigrants in the premier Vistalba subregion of Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, Nieto Senetiner stands as one of Argentina's foundational and most storied wineries. Expanded and revitalized by the Nieto and Senetiner families beginning in 1969, the estate pairs more than a century of viticultural heritage with modern vinification techniques. Nestled in the high-altitude foothills of the Andes, the vineyards thrive in semi-arid conditions that produce concentrated, balanced fruit with remarkable depth. The winery is internationally celebrated for its rich, expressive Malbecs and its flagship Don Nicanor portfolio, showcasing complex red blends, old-vine selections, and refined varietal wines.
