Argentine Wines in Switzerland: Mylena and Familia Furlotti

She Sorted the Grapes Herself

  • She was­n’t look­ing for a sup­pli­er. She was look­ing for some­thing with iden­ti­ty.
  • Three years in which we kept doing what we always do: har­vests, deci­sions, time.
  • She under­stood the wines because she under­stood where they came from.

Three years ago, Myle­na left Switzer­land look­ing for Argen­tine wines in Switzer­land — wines with a real place behind them, and a real sto­ry. She did­n’t know that search would change the way we bring our wines to the world.

Mylena, distributor of Familia Furlotti wines in Switzerland, selecting grapes.

She arrived at Fin­ca Adal­gisa, our wine hotel in Chacras de Coria, and stayed for weeks. Not as a vis­i­tor. She went to the win­ery in Luján de Cuyo every day, sort­ed Mal­bec grapes with our Famil­ia Fur­lot­ti fam­i­ly, tast­ed through the cel­lar, asked ques­tions, and watched every step of the process.

 

“She under­stood the wines because she under­stood where they came from.”

She was­n’t look­ing for a sup­pli­er. She was look­ing for some­thing with iden­ti­ty. When she found it, she knew she want­ed to bring it to Switzer­land. But first, she had to build her own project.

We Waited Three Years

Three years in which Myle­na built some­thing sol­id from scratch — with com­mit­ment and with care. Three years in which we kept doing what we always do: har­vests, deci­sions, time. No rush.

Dur­ing those weeks at the fin­ca, her under­stand­ing deep­ened — of the val­ley, of the vine­yard, of the women who built this place, of a cen­tu­ry of wine­mak­ing in Men­doza that shapes every bot­tle we make.

Argentine Wines in Switzerland — Now a Reality

Today, our wines are in Switzer­land. The Mal­bec from Lun­lun­ta, the one from Para­je Altami­ra, the Mal­bec Blend, the Semi­l­lón, the Blan­co de Ver­a­no. The same bot­tles Myle­na sort­ed grape by grape in 2023.

“She was­n’t look­ing for a sup­pli­er. She was look­ing for some­thing with iden­ti­ty.”

They car­ry more than fla­vor. They car­ry the sto­ry of the land they come from, and the patience of some­one who wait­ed for the right moment to share them.

Myle­na chose our wines to begin her own path as an importer. She did it care­ful­ly, with respect for the prod­uct and its ori­gin.

If you’re in Switzer­land, you can find our wines at www.myvineria.ch. If you’ve vis­it­ed Adal­gisa and want to taste again what you had here — now you can.

Three years were worth it.
