In 1890 Leoncio Arizu arrived in Argentina in search of new opportunities and founded the winery in Mendoza in 1901. There, they decided to join forces with the Bosca family, another old and prosperous family from Piedmont, Italy, and founded what we know today as Bodega Luigi Bosca - Arizu Family.
The Arizu family have been protagonists of the great changes of the national viticulture, even participating actively in the foundation of the first D.O.C. of Argentina, in 1989: the Denomination of Origin Luján de Cuyo.
The pillars on which Bodega Luigi Bosca has consolidated its trajectory have been its prestige based on the experience transmitted throughout the years, the constant and homogeneous quality of its wines and the permanent search for excellence through innovation and advanced technology.
Seeking to respect the terroir to the maximum, Bodega Luigi Bosca decided to adopt some of the most beneficial principles of the biodynamic cultivation system, based on a work philosophy that seeks to empower the plant to strengthen and defend itself.
Luigi Bosca's eight estates, covering some 683 hectares, are located in the most prestigious areas of Mendoza: Luján de Cuyo, Maipú and Valle de Uco. The different varieties harvested in them were brought from Europe in the last decade of the 19th century, so today's vines are the result of the selection of the best of those old family vineyards.
His collection of wines is present in many of the most emblematic gastronomic environments in the world, as well as being on board of prestigious international airlines.
