Luigi Bosca is the leading Argentine winery at an international level, and one of the most admired brands worldwide. Present in over 60 countries and more than 9.5 million premium wine bottles produced on an annual basis, it is regarded as an ambassador of the peculi arity and elegance of the wines born in Mendoza. Over the course of its 120 years of history, Luigi Bosca successfully redefined the luxury Argentine winemaking sector.
Founded in 1901 by the Arizu family in Mendoza, Bodega Luigi Bosca is the most historic wine family in Argentina and has continuously crafted award - winning wines that showcase the unique terroir of Mendoza’s sub-regions. The family has estate vineyards spanning over 1,300 acres in celebrated subregions, Luján de Cuyo, Uco Valley, and Maipu. Dedicated to showcasing ultra - premium and luxury wines, the Arizu family helped to establish the first Argentinian D.O.C. Luján de Cuyo, in 1989. The wine collection today includes the Luigi Bosca tier, the DeSangre collection, Los Nobles single vineyard, and the pinnacle wine of the family, Paraiso.
Luigi Bosca produces top quality wines based on their long - term vision and consistency over time. A legacy that is passed on from generation to generation, to keep on writing a century - old history through the transformation of the essential aspects of nature into the uniqueness of the exceptional.
Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
