Salentein
Bodegas Salentein is the name of the winery from Argentina. The Bodega is responsible for contemporary wines with a recognizable Argentinian character. The house has a Dutch touch due to the establishment of Mijndert Pon in 1997.
Gran Vu
Gran Vu is the Premium blend of Bodegas Salentein and is a combination of exceptional 'terroir' and low-yield quality grapes. A very exceptional blend from the very highest segment.
Vinification
The grapes are picked early in the morning, when the temperature is not yet that high. To prevent oxidation, they are quickly transported to the wine cellar where the grapes are immediately processed. The juice is cold soaked and fermented in 225 liter barrels. Only after 6 months are the grapes blended and the ripening process continues for a total of 24 months.
Origin
The most prestigious wine of the Bodegas Salentein, the Gran Vu comes from the best vines of Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec from the Uco Valley. The most calcareous and rocky soils from the La Pampa and El Oasis estate have been selected for this.
