Product Notes

Bodega Aleanna El Enemigo Syrah Viognier is a remarkably intriguing Argentinean blend, grown in South Mendoza's high altitude vineyards. The wine features primarily Syrah grapes, complemented with a dose of Viognier. The resulting pour exhibits a luscious depth and richness with vibrant, viscous textures. It doles out palate-friendly flavours of plums, blackberries, and violets, nuanced beautifully with delicate white flowers and sweet spices. There's a minerally undertow echoing the limestone soils of the vineyard. Ageing in French oak barrels awards a woody demeanour, linking warm toast and vanilla tones into this eminently drinkable, well-structured wine. Thoroughly enjoyable, it's a versatile accompaniment to various gastronomic delights.

About the Winery

Bodega Aleanna

Nestled within the verdant hills of Argentina’s famed Mendoza wine region lies Bodega Aleanna, a boutique winery that has skyrocketed to international prominence for its exceptional and crafty viticulture.

Bodega Aleanna, a partnership between highly renowned winemaker Alejandro Vigil and historian Adrianna Catena, started off was a humble experiment in the early 2000's and has since morphed into one of Argentina's most lauded wine labels, gaining global recognition for its stellar Cabernet Franc and Malbec wines. The duo’s shared passion for wines, coupled with their respect for the environment and commitment to producing high quality wines, is palpably evident in every bottle they produce.

Nestled in the Valle de Uco and Tupungato, their vineyard stretches across 15 hectares with towering trees supplementing the dramatic backdrop of the snow-capped Andes. These diverse terroirs lend distinct complexities and nuances to their wines, resulting in a fantastic depth of flavour and texture that are appreciated by enthusiasts and connoisseurs worldwide; Bodega Aleanna’s wines are famous for their rich fruitiness, robust structure, and lingering finish.

One of the highlights of Bodega Aleanna is El Enemigo. A symbol of their philosophy, Alejandro named it this way implying that the real "enemy" is within oneself and challenges us constantly. This very notion is reflected in the crafting of their prestigious wine, showing that firm determination can create something truly exceptional.

Bodega Aleanna isn’t simply a winery it’s, a testament to the art of winemaking, embodying a harmonious blend of traditional methods and innovative flair. With each bottle encapsulating the spirit of Argentina’s rich wine heritage, a visit to Bodega Aleanna is an immersive, gustatory journey through the essence of a country that has defined itself through its envigoured and passionate approach to enology.
