The Emilia range from Nieto Senetiner is named in tribute to Emilia Nieto, a key figure in the winery's history who symbolized the hospitality, strength, and pioneering spirit of the estate's founding families. Designed to be a modern, approachable, and highly expressive line, the Emilia Red Blend captures the vibrant and youthful side of Mendoza's viticulture. Grapes are sourced from selected vineyards across Mendoza, where high-altitude sunshine and alluvial soils yield fruit with intense color and fresh aromatics. The winemaking process focuses on preserving primary fruit characteristics, utilizing temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation and minimal oak contact to ensure a smooth, round, and easily enjoyable profile that celebrates everyday moments.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1888 by Italian immigrants in the premier wine-growing region of Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, Nieto Senetiner is one of Argentina's most historic and prestigious wineries. The estate was acquired by the Nieto and Senetiner families in 1969, who expanded its facilities while preserving its architectural heritage, and it is now part of the Perez Companc Group. Renowned for its deep respect for terroir, the winery crafts exceptional wines from historic vineyards, including the centenarian vines of Finca Villa Blanca planted in 1906. Under the guidance of winemaker Santiago Mayorga, Nieto Senetiner produces elegant, structured wines, most notably their acclaimed Don Nicanor Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and innovative blends that showcase the classic character of Mendoza.
