Deep violet-red color, with intense blueish hues. It stands out for its elegance, with a wide range of aromas, highlighting black fruits, mocha, cassis, and subtle spicy touches, in perfect harmony with floral notes. It is sophisticated, complex, and with notable personality on the palate, enveloping acidity, good structure, presenting sweet tannins and delicate toasted flavors, with a long and persistent finish.

Founded in 2002 by Julio Camsen, Huentala expands across more than 230 hectares of vineyard land in Gualtallari, one of Uco Valley’s most coveted hillside viticultural areas at over 4,500 feet from sea level with sandy, stony and chalky soils. “Huentala” is an aboriginal name that pays homage to the first indigenous tribes to farm Mendoza’s soils. Julio Camsen is a self-made entrepreneur in the hospitality industry who’s passionate about wine, history and classy “sombreros” among many other things.
