The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

Bodega Salentein is one of Argentina's most prestigious wineries. It exudes Argentina, with every sip of Salentein wine. However, Bodega Salentein also has a Dutch touch. The winery was founded almost 30 years ago, in 1992, by Dutch entrepreneur Mijndert Pon. He commissioned the construction of an impressive winery in Valle de Uco, a wine region near the renowned Mendoza. The estate encompasses a total of 2,000 hectares, of which a whopping 800 hectares are planted with grapes. A truly enormous winery.

As the name suggests, the grapes for Salentein Single Vineyard are grown on a vineyard called Vinedo Las Secuoyas San Pablo. This vineyard, San Pablo Estate, is located at an altitude of over 1600 meters. The vineyard was planted in 2002. Ample space between the vines ensures excellent grape quality.
