Analytical data

1.8 g/l residual sugar
6.0 g/l acidity
3.65 pH

Following a four-day cold maceration on the skins, fermentation occurred in a mix of stainless steel, oak, and concrete tanks at 2˚-2CS9. With regular closed and open pump-overs and a post-fermentation maceration of at least 20-2˚ days. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation took place in French oak, and the wine was then aged in the second and third  French oak barrels for twelve months.

The nose explodes with red and black fruits alongside appealing 8oral notes. It is followed by a lush, well-rounded palate with a fruit profile that blends freshness and intensity. The oak ageing has lent a spicy character, with a complex mineral streak through the core.

Winery

Pulenta Estate was founded in 2002 by brothers Hugo and Eduardo Pulenta, fourth-generation winemakers, to translate their family legacy and their father’s pioneering spirit  into a modern, innovative winery that produces limited quantities of great wines. They have quickly carved out a reputation for precise, elegant wines across a range of varieties and premium price points. The estate consists of two vineyards in key areas of Mendoza: Finca La Zulema in Agrelo and Viñedos Don Antonio in Los Arboles, a district of the Uco Valley. These contrasting vineyards have complex alluvial soils and distinct altitudes that help give Pulenta wines their distinctive style when blended.
 The signature style of Pulenta is built on finesse, silky texture and elegant fruit character while displaying the typical power and depth of fruit expected of Argentinian wines. Their range features youthful wines under the Bodega La Flor label, bottled and released after 3 months in oak. The estate reds see 12 months in new French oak and 12 months ageing in the bottle before release. The ‘Gran’ wines are at the top of the range, and the pinnacle is the Gran Corte, an impressive blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Tannat.
