✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Nieto Senetiner's classic Malbec is a tribute to Mendoza's winemaking heritage, where the French grape found its ultimate expression at the foothills of the Andes. Sourced from selected vineyards in Luján de Cuyo, this wine captures the essence of high-altitude viticulture. The grapes benefit from intense solar radiation and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts, resulting in thick skins rich in polyphenols. Fermented in traditional concrete vats and partially aged in French oak, the wine tells a story of survival and adaptation, tracing back to the 19th-century cuttings that escaped the phylloxera plague in Europe. It represents a classic, fruit-forward yet structured style of Argentine Malbec, defined by its deep violet hues and velvety texture.
🍾 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.
