  • The La Flor line of wines is celebrated for its vibrant and fruity characteristics, exhibiting a perfect equilibrium and rich concentration. These wines typically boast a deep ruby hue. The aroma profile is marked by spicy notes that evoke red pepper, oregano, and eucalyptus amid hints of luscious plum jam. These complex aromas intertwine with the alluring nuances of chocolate, coconut, and tobacco, attributed to the influence of oak ageing.

The grapes come from the Finca La Zulema vineyard, where the alluvial soils contain a mix of sandy loam and clay. Proximity to the mountains creates a wide diurnal temperature range. The grapes were harvested by hand.

Manual harvest and selection of bunches in the winery. 12 to 24 hours of pre-fermentative maceration between 5 and 8°C. Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks and concrete pools. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation in concrete pools. 6 months ageing in second and third-use barrels. Alcohol: 14 %

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.
