| The Pulenta family has been involved in Argentine viticulture for three generations. Sons of the well-known wine-grower Antonio Pulenta, Eduardo and Hugo created this winery in 2002. The estate is located in the prestigious Alto Agrelo section of Lujan de Cuyo. The vineyards are located 3200 feet above sea level where the wide range between day and evening temperatures leads to a long, healthy growing season. The vineyards, now well-matured, were planted by their father Antonio. |
