Rutini Encuentro
Symbolizes the encounter of two winemakers: Mariano Di Paola and Paul Hobbs. Together they created this original amalgam of two winemaking philosophies: Bordeaux (France) and Argentina’s New World savoir-faire that retains the fruity aromas and flavours of the grapes.
More complex and structured, these wines start to guide consumers into the true essence of winemaking at Rutini Wines. In Argentina, encounters are part of our culture. This wine is an embodiment of brotherhood, union and friendship.
