Luigi Bosca Paraiso - Argentina
PARAISO, the winery’s most important wine, is a bright and deep purple red wine. Its aromas are intense, balanced and elegant, with a defined and complex aromatic expression, displaying notes of black plums, blackberries, toasted hazelnuts, chocolate and mint. On the mouth it is graceful, ample and with a fruity character very well integrated with the ageing process notes. It is fresh, harmonious, precise and soft on the palate with a persistent finish that allows us to perceive its great ageing potential.
Grapes are manually harvested, followed by the bunch selection and destemming processes, and the subsequent berry selection. The grape juice is cold macerated at a temperature ranging between 8 and 10 °C for five days. A percentage of the Malbec undergoes carbonic maceration. The Malbec is then fermented in small stainless steel tanks at a temperature between 24-28°C for 10 days,
undergoingvariousextractions,suchasplungingandrackandreturn (délestage) and the Cabernet Sauvignon is fermented in rollers. Once maceration is completed, most of the wine is aged between 12 and 14 months in oak barrels and foudre, where it undergoes malolactic fermentation. Next, the best barrels and foudre are selected to make the final blend. Then, the wine is filtered and bottled. Before launching the wine into the market, it is stowed in the wine cellar for at least six months.PARAISO is the result of the most celebrated harvests only, and perfectly expresses the Arizu family’s search in the terroir of Mendoza for over 120 years of history and knowledge. This wine pays tribute to Finca El Paraíso, a transcendent vineyard, the source of inspiration of many of the most important innovations, and part of the historical and emotional legacy of the family.
