About the Winery

Bodega Aleanna

Situated in the heart of Argentina's esteemed wine country, Mendoza, Bodega Aleanna is an undisputed gem amongst wine connoisseurs. The winery, established in 2007 by enologist Alejandra Arizu and historian Adrianna Catena, has quickly become renowned for its rich and graceful vintages that boast a compelling sense of character and finesse.

Perched at striking altitudes in the Uco Valley, Bodega Aleanna benefits from an extraordinary terroir. From the complex soils rich in limestone, gravel and clay, to the beneficent climate. The winery's vineyards experience a generous warmth during the day which gently subsides as the cool Andean nights set in. 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.

The wines of Bodega Aleanna are an exquisite testament to careful vineyard management and dexterous winemaking. Each bottle isc a perfect harmony of fruit intensity and elegant structure—a truly remarkable triumph that has gained worldwide attention. In fact, the winery's flagship wine, Gran Enemigo, has even received the illustrious Wine Advocate’s highest score for an Argentinian wine.

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. With its reputation for excellence and an unyielding dedication to craftsmanship, Bodega Aleanna undoubtedly promises a wine experience that's as unforgettable as it is rewarding.
