✨ Technical Specifications
Trivento, named after the three legendary winds—Polar, Zonda, and Sudestada—that sweep through the vineyards of Mendoza, crafts 'Brisa de Abril' (April Breeze) as a tribute to the gentle autumn wind of the Southern Hemisphere. Harvested late in the season during April, the grapes, typically a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier, are allowed to overripen on the vine. This late-harvest process concentrates the natural sugars and aromatic compounds, resulting in a luscious sweet white wine. The high-altitude Mendoza terroir, with its intense sunlight and pure Andean meltwater, imparts a vibrant acidity that beautifully balances the wine's rich notes of honey, ripe stone fruits, and delicate floral undertones.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1996 as the Argentine venture of the renowned wine group Viña Concha y Toro, Bodega Trivento is situated in Maipú within the premier winemaking heart of Mendoza, Argentina. The estate takes its poetic name from the three signature winds—the Polar, Zonda, and Sudestada—that sweep across the Andean foothills, actively shaping the microclimates and health of the vines. Emphasizing modern, sustainable viticulture alongside precise cellar craft, the winery sources fruit from prime high-altitude vineyards across the Uco Valley, Luján de Cuyo, and Maipú. Trivento is celebrated internationally for its bold, fruit-forward red wines, particularly its benchmark Malbec bottlings such as the Golden Reserve and the ultra-premium icon Eolo, as well as refreshing white and sparkling offerings.
