✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Benjamín line from Nieto Senetiner pays tribute to Benjamín Nieto, one of the foundational pioneers of this historic Mendoza estate. Crafted to showcase a friendly, fruit-forward, and highly approachable style, this Syrah is sourced from selected vineyards across Mendoza's high-altitude plains. Here, the intense Andean sunshine and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts allow the Syrah grapes to achieve optimal ripeness while retaining vibrant natural acidity. To preserve its fresh, primary fruit character, the wine undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks with minimal oak contact. The result is a bright, expressive red that captures the spicy, berry-rich essence of Argentine Syrah in its purest, most youthful form.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Nieto Senetiner blev grundlagt i 1888 af italienske immigranter i den velansete Vistalba-underregion i Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, og regnes i dag for et af Argentinas mest historiske og toneangivende vinhuse. Da familierne Nieto og Senetiner overtog og revitaliserede ejendommen i 1969, forenede de mere end et århundredes vindyrkningstradition med moderne vinificeringsmetoder. Vinmarkerne er beliggende højt oppe ved Andesbjergenes udløbere, hvor det tørre klima skaber optimale betingelser for koncentrerede, harmoniske druer med en imponerende dybde. Vinhuset har vundet international anerkendelse for sine fyldige, udtryksfulde Malbec-vine og flagskibsserien Don Nicanor, som omfatter komplekse rødvinsblends, cuvéer fra gamle vinstokke og raffinerede enkeltdruevine.
