Semillón de Familia Furlotti servido en copa, expresión de vino blanco mendocino elaborado por una bodega familiar

Semillon, a classic in recovery

  • Semi­l­lon returns to Men­doza from an old vine­yard, regain­ing iden­ti­ty and fresh­ness.

  • Two expres­sions from the same ori­gin: one fresh, with­out wood; the oth­er aged, grown in a cel­lar.

  • A clas­sic white, cared for by a fam­i­ly that believes in time , patience and a job well done .

 

A white man from Mendoza who came back to stay.

Discover the Semillon

I always thought I was a red wine woman.
That this was a land of red wines.
Until I dis­cov­ered Semi­l­lon .

And the Semi­l­lon changed my per­spec­tive of the world.
Since then, I’ve been in love with Semi­l­lon .

Two Semillons, one same origin

In our fam­i­ly we have two Semi­l­lons: one
fresh , which has a draw­ing of the vine­yard on its label —because it is born there, among old rows and vines that resist—, and anoth­er
for aging , whose label shows the facade of the win­ery —because that is where it is aged , in our bar­rels, in silence and at a con­stant tem­per­a­ture.

Two dif­fer­ent wines, the same place.

A vineyard that endures

Both come from the same old vine­yard , very close to the city, resist­ing the encroach­ment of gat­ed com­mu­ni­ties.
For years, Semi­l­lon was a vari­etal for­got­ten by pro­duc­ers, wine­mak­ers, and con­sumers.
But we chose to recov­er it, nur­ture it, and give it a new life .

Choos­ing Semi­l­lon was a form of resis­tance.

Freshness and aging

Fresh Semi­l­lon is har­vest­ed ear­ly, fer­ment­ed with native yeasts and pre­served with­out oak aging, to main­tain its live­ly, min­er­al and flo­ral pro­file.

The Semi­l­lon de guar­da, on the oth­er hand, is aged in bar­rels with­in our win­ery, devel­op­ing deep­er, hon­eyed notes, with tex­ture and com­plex­i­ty.

Par­ent­ing does­n’t rush: it accom­pa­nies.

A target with time

Each one express­es a dif­fer­ent moment from the same place.
And togeth­er, they tell a sto­ry of rebirth .

Gold­en in col­or with aro­mas of peach and apri­cot, our Semi­l­lon is fresh, full-bod­ied, and per­sis­tent.
It pairs beau­ti­ful­ly with roast­ed poul­try, fish, soft pas­ta dish­es, or risot­tos, and has enough char­ac­ter to stand up to even the most intense fla­vors.

Because some­times, the clas­sics come back.

And when they return, they return to stay.

Gabriela Furlotti

I'm Gabriela Furlotti. I was born and raised among vineyards in Mendoza, and I still live on a finca. My family came from Italy, the Basque Country and Catalonia. Some knew the land, others the law. They had vineyards, wineries, a hotel and a dairy farm. I carry that on in my own way: I make wine at Bodega Furlotti, welcome guests at Finca Adalgisa and plant trees in Altamira. I water, walk through the vineyard, and gather eggs and chicory for dinner. Here I write down what I see, what I do and what I was told, so it won't be lost.
