Product Notes

Bodega Aleanna Gran Enemigo Blend is a captivating wine of Argentine origin, emerging from the gifted hands of winemaker Alejandro Vigil. An intriguing blend predominantly housing Cabernet Franc alongside Malbec, its luxurious personality reveals layers of red fruit nuances, punctuated by whispers of bell pepper and spice. Subtle oak-derived undertones from extensive barrel ageing lend a delicately sweet note to the mix. Its exceptional balance, concentrated palate, and finely grained tannins culminate in a resoundingly long finish. This elegantly complex, full-bodied wine brings a taste of Argentine passion to your dining table.

Tasting Notes

The nose presents sweet aromas of black ripen fruits with hints of vanilla and chocolate, which appear after the oak ageing. The mouthfeel is sweet with structured, persistent tannins due to the natural acidity of this wine, leading into an excellent long finish.

This climactic interplay contributes to a longer ripening period for the grapes which in turn, imbues the wines with an arresting array of aromatics and a sublime balance.

Each bottle isc a perfect harmony of fruit intensity and elegant structure—a truly remarkable triumph that has gained worldwide attention.

Bodega Aleanna combines innovative techniques with traditional winemaking methods to create their impressive portfolio. From enlisting the aid of horses to plough the vineyards, to fermenting the grapes in concrete eggs, the winery finds unique ways to allow nature to ultimately shape their wines.

Most notably however, it's the indelible vision and passion of its founders that truly set Bodega Aleanna apart. Their shared dream of producing vintage wines of extraordinary quality has transcended boundaries and presented Argentina's unique varietals in a global arena.
