Finca Sophenia is an Argentinian winery recognised as one of the top quality wine producers from Argentina. To achieve its goals, Roberto Luka, its founder and conductor, chose Gualtallary, Tupungato, Mendoza, one of the most prestigious regions to produce high quality wines. The result was quite rewarding and the wines have already been praised by wine writers in Europe, America and Asia, and now one of JN Wine's most popular wines.

"Lots of dark cherry fruit with some violets and stone. Fruity and simple on the palate, with a medium body and firm, fresh tannins. Simple, pristine fruit. Drink now. Screw cap."
