Bodega Luigi Bosca Icono is a flagship wine offering from Bodega Luigi Bosca, one of Argentina's most esteemed wine producers.

On the palate, Icono offers intense flavors of dark fruit, balanced by elegant tannins and a long, smooth finish. This is a wine that truly captures the essence of Argentine wine-making excellence.

About the Winery

Established in 1901 by Don Leoncio Arizu, Bodega Luigi Bosca is Argentina’s most ancient family-owned winery today. Currently, the winery is managed by the descendants of the founder. This winery is located in Mendoza, the richest wine-producing regions in Argentina. The wines crafted in the Luigi Bosca winery are of high quality and intensity because of the unique desert climate of Mendoza and the fertile alluvial deposits in the soil.

The seven proprietary vineyards that are in the names of Bodega Luigi Bosca today are Finca La Linda, Finca Los Nobles, La Espana, Don Leoncio, El Paraiso, La Puntilla and Los Miradores. These are located across Argentina’s important wine regions of Maipu, Tupungato and Lujan de Cuyo. The best part of these vineyards is that they are all at an elevated level.
