Vineyard:

The grapes for Famigilia Bianchi Extra Brut come from two of our family vineyards in San Rafael: Finca Doña Elsa and Finca Las Paredes, both located at an altitude of 800 m.a.s.l. approximately, and with poor soils of alluvial origin containing different amounts of calcareous sediment which transmit mineral notes to the wine.

The Wine:

Born in Fasano, Italy, in 1887, Don Valentín emigrated with his family to Argentina in 1910. In 1928 he bought a small vineyard and gave birth to Bodegas Valentin Bianchi. As part of the legacy, they seek to keep alive the passion for wine and constantly exploring new horizons. Their guiding principles in winemaking are to respect nature and the best viticultural and oenological practices.

Sporting Connection: 

Lionel Messi is arguably the best-known football player in the world and regarded by many as one of the most skillful of all time.
