Sauvignon Blanc 2018
As a tribute to the land and to those who work it, Luigi Bosca have worked more than 110 years to understand the intention of the vine. The passion of four generations of the same family, shown in Bodega Luigi Bosca’s collection, reflects the result of an ambitious effort started many years ago: the wish to express the thorough version of the essence of Argentine wine.
Terroir: Sourced from Bosca’s El Paraiso vineyard in Lujan de Cuyo- Maipo. Vines average 30 years and sit at an elevation of 780 meters. Soils here are well drained and shallow based with a mix of limestone and silt.
Vinification: Grapes are hand harvested and meticulously sorted and destemmed upon arrival at the winery. Grapes are pressed for 4-6 hours followed by a cool maceration for 24 hours. The juice is fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel vats followed by 6 months of aging on its lees.
Additional Information
Vivid, green-yellow in color with aromas of tropical fruit, herb and mineral. Refreshing acidity, velvety with a prolonged finish.
