Wine of Argentina
Suitable for vegetarians
Pinot Grigio White Argentinian Wine.
In Argentina, high altitude vineyards soak up bright sunshine and clearest glacial melt water from the Andes. Unique conditions and our years of winemaking experience allow us to bring you this carefully handcrafted wine.
Artesano de Argento Pinot Grigio is light lemon in colour and offers a lively nose of delicate floral aromas and tropical fruit notes. White stone fruit flavours of apricot and peach are complemented by mineral and slate elements leading into a zesty finish. Crisp and refreshing to drink, this wine is the perfect aperitif or can be paired with a wide variety of cuisines, including many Asian and Mediterranean dishes.
Artesano de Argento is a handcrafted range of wines inspired by Argentina's strong cultural and historical links to silver. From the early 18th Century, artisans fashioned spurs, stirrups, buckles, asado knives and mate pots from Argentine silver as a way for the Gaucho to carry his wealth.
Made with typical Argentina passion, Artesano de Argento is sourced from high altitude vineyards with a variety of soil profiles and microclimates. This allows us to product elegant, vibrant wines of exceptional complexity, balance, and fruit purity.
