Crafted by the historic Nieto Senetiner estate in Mendoza, the Reserva Syrah & Cabernet Sauvignon represents a harmonious marriage of two robust French varieties that thrive under the intense Argentine sun. Born in the high-altitude vineyards of Luján de Cuyo, where the vines are nourished by pure Andean snowmelt and planted in alluvial soils, this blend showcases the distinct synergy of its components. The Syrah contributes lush blackberry fruit, wild violet aromas, and a signature cracked black pepper spiciness, while the Cabernet Sauvignon provides a firm backbone of structured tannins, cassis, and elegant herbal undertones. Aged in French oak barrels, this wine honors the estate's centuries-old winemaking legacy—dating back to its founding by Italian immigrants in 1888—by delivering a classic, full-bodied Mendoza red that beautifully balances rustic power with polished elegance.
🍾 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.
