Producer Details
Casarena consider themselves custodians & indeed, champions, of the distinctive terroir of Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, producing a singular range of varietal and blended wines from their single vineyards; Jamilla, Lauren, Owen and Naoki, located in Perdriel, Agrelo and Alto Agrelo. The vineyards are planted in alluvial soils with a distinctive mineral component and due to the varying degrees of soil composition, elevation, and climate/sun exposure within Luján de Cuyo, winemaker Martina Galeano is able to create markedly different profiles within a varietal showcasing the unique expression of each single vineyard. Originally built in 1937, the winery was renovated in 2008, providing the investment needed to continue the Casarena story, but careful to maintain the original character of the structure.
