General Information
Bodega Otronia Corte de Blancas ’45 Rugientes’ is a special white wine from the extremely southern wine region of Patagonia, Argentina. The vineyards are located around the 45th latitude, where the winds (“Rugientes 45” or “roaring 45”) have a cool, rugged influence on the grapes.
This wine is a blend of Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Gris, sourced from vineyards that are biodynamically farmed with minimal intervention.
