About This Wine

Where does this wine come from?

Bodega Bouza, Montevideo & Canelones, Uruguay. Bodega Bouza farms vineyards in Melilla, just outside Montevideo, and in nearby Las Violetas, Canelones—two regions shaped by Uruguay's temperate climate and the nearby Río de la Plata. Warm days, cool evenings, and well-drained soils allow each vineyard to ripen slowly, producing wines with remarkable balance, freshness, and elegance. While the winery is just minutes from Uruguay's capital, every bottle reflects a deep commitment to expressing the unique character of each site.

Who makes this wine?

Eduardo Boido

Winemaker Eduardo Boido has helped establish Bodega Bouza as one of Uruguay's benchmark estates through meticulous vineyard management and a philosophy that values precision over intervention.

His careful attention to detail has earned Bouza international recognition for producing some of the country's most refined wines.

Why did we choose this wine?
