The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
When you think of wines from the "New World," Portillo wines immediately spring to mind. Under the inspiring leadership of Bodegas Salentein, wines are created that redefine quality. With their full, fruity flavors, they offer every wine enthusiast an unforgettable experience. The magic lies in the location: the vineyards of Bodega El Portillo in Valle de Uco are situated at a breathtaking altitude of 1,100 meters. In these highlands, the grapes enjoy sun-drenched days and cool nights—a combination that makes Valle de Uco one of the top wine regions in South America.
Creating Portillo Sauvignon Blanc is a harmonious blend of modern and traditional winemaking techniques. Maturation in stainless steel tanks and hand-sorting of the grapes ensure unparalleled quality. The ancient vines, which proudly adorn the highlands, give the wine a freshness and intensity rarely found. Behind this masterful wine is Salentein, the brainchild of Dutch businessman Mijndert Pon, founded in 1996. The vineyard's architecture itself is a work of art—designed in the shape of a cross, with a boutique winery in each wing. And deep underground, eight meters to be precise, the wine rests in oak barrels, using gravity for a seamless transition from tank to barrel.
The Portillo Sauvignon Blanc is a symphony of flavors. Its bright, golden hue radiates in the glass, and the aromas of grapefruit, exotic fruit, and crisp green apples invite you to the first sip. Each sip reveals fresh citrus and exotic fruit notes, perfectly balanced with the characteristic acidity of a Sauvignon Blanc. It's a wine that's both refreshing and rich, ideal for a sunny day or as an accompaniment to a summer meal.
