    The name Bueyes comes from an old story told to Jesus Bianchetti (Owner and Winemaker) by his grandfather:

    "In the early 20th century, my father immigrated from Italy to Argentina. He was in a humble position and began working as a laborer on a farm in the town of La Consulta. At that time there were no agricultural machinery like tractors, so the land was worked by castrated bulls called oxen (Bueyes). These large, strong animals were gentle and docile, perfect for plowing. My father had worked with the bulls in Italy (as did his father), so when he arrived in Mendoza he got his first job as a manager of oxen. Over the years, with hard work and sacrifice, he was able to buy a small property at the foot of the Andes, surrounded by small melt-water streams. Since then, with my father working at his side, he began to raise his own vineyards on his own land."

    When choosing a name for his dream, he remembered this story, and in honor of those who worked day and night to cultivate the vineyards that give birth to his wines, he decided to give tribute to these animals, who were the first ones to work this land.

    By far the largest and best-known winemaking province in Argentina, Mendoza is responsible for over 70% of the country’s enological output. Set in the eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains, the climate is dry and continental, presenting relatively few challenges for viticulturists during the growing season. Mendoza, divided into several distinctive sub-regions, including Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, is the source of some of the country’s finest wines.

    For many wine lovers, Mendoza is practically synonymous with Malbec. Originally a Bordelaise variety brought to Argentina by the French in the mid-1800s, here it found success and renown that it never knew in its homeland where a finicky climate gives mixed results. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and Pinot Noir are all widely planted here as well (and sometimes even blended with each other or Malbec). Mendoza's main white varieties include Chardonnay, Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
