Product Notes

Humberto Canale Intimo Sauvignon Semillon is an exceptional blend of two classic grape varieties grown in the esteemed wine-producing region of Patagonia, Argentina. This wine is a testament to the skill and expertise of the winemakers at Humberto Canale winery, who have crafted a wine that is both elegant and refreshing, with a complex and layered texture. On the nose, Intimo Sauvignon Semillon greets you with a burst of citrus and tropical fruit aromas, followed by subtle herbal notes. On the palate, it is crisp and lively, with a perfect balance of acidity and silky smooth mouthfeel. This wine is perfect for pairing with fresh seafood, salads, or light pasta dishes.

Tasting Notes

Vibrant white from southern Argentina, grassy and piquant with citrus on the nose, followed by a mouthful of tropical fruit, freshened with a further spritz of citrus.

About the Winery

Humberto Canale

The history of Bodega Humberto Canale, the Argentinian wine label dates back to as early as 1909. It was during this time that Engineer Humberto Canale realised the potential of the Alto Valle del Rio Negro region, when he started doing some irrigation work on it. Today, 11 decades and 5 generations later, this is one of the most respected wine labels in Argentina, the country where people are quite particular about their wines.

The Bodega Humberto Canale Winery was established during 1999 in Patagonia, a place that is known for its lakes, deserts, glaciers, mountains and natural abundance all over. At the Patagonian winery, modern and traditional winemaking techniques are practiced with equal fervour and expertise, to make high-quality and individualistic wines that are symbolic of this region.

Sustainable winemaking practices such as using pomace, seeds and bees for processing, indigenous yeasts for fermentation and melt water for irrigation are followed at the winery here. Some of the popular wines from the stables of Humberto Canale are:
