Vina Alicia Cabernet Sauvignon Paso de Piedra 2013 |
Vina Alicia is a winery that combines the wine grower tradition of its makers and the privileged location to get collection wines. With more than 25 years of research and study to obtain ”excellent wines”, in 1998 Alicia Mateu Arizu, wife of the well-known ”winemaker” Alberto Arizu (Luigi Bosca’s alma mater), started the commercialization of the wines that bear her name, along with the youngest of her three sons, Rodrigo Arizu. Featured as a ”chateau”, the winery ”Vina Alicia” is surrounded by a 10-hectare vineyard with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot grapes and some vines that are hardly found in Argentine, such as Nebbiolo, Grenache Noir, Carignan, Albarino and Savagnin. Although the winery has a 50.000 liters production capacity, it only commercializes 25.000 bottles per year of Vina Alicia’s wines and 80.000 bottles of both Paso de Piedra’s wines, which are all exported to fourteen countries. ”Vina Alicia” currently enjoys the international prestige and recognition of the most outstanding personalities of the wine world.
