✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Nieto Senetiner's Don Nicanor Gewurztraminer (often designated as GW) represents a pioneering departure from Mendoza's traditional red-dominated landscape. Named in honor of founder Don Nicanor Nieto, this wine showcases the winery's innovative spirit by cultivating the aromatic Alsatian grape in the high-altitude, cool-climate terroir of Vista Flores within the Uco Valley. The intense alpine sunlight and dramatic diurnal temperature swings of this sub-region allow the grapes to develop their signature exotic perfume while retaining a vibrant, crisp acidity. Crafted with partial barrel fermentation and lees contact, this wine beautifully marries the classic, highly expressive floral and spice notes of the variety with a rich, textured complexity and elegant structure.
🍾 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.
