Finca Sophenia

Finca Sophenia is recognised as one of the top wine producers in Argentina. In the conception of this goal, winery founder Roberto Luka specifically chose Gualtallary, Tupungato, Mendoza - one of the most prestigious winegrowing regions in Argentina - to craft the country’s highest quality wines. 

The result was absolutely gratifying, and the wines have since been universally praised by critics and publications across the world.

Finca Sophenia was established by Roberto in 1997. The name of the estate is an amalgamation of his daughters Sophia and Eugenia (hence ‘SOPH-ENIA’).

Eugenia Luka is already part of a new generation of entrepreneurs in the wine industry, launching her ‘E’s Vino’ winery in Mendoza which JN also stocks.

Gualtallary is located in the department of Tupungato in the Uco Valley, Mendoza, and is a territory with an ideal microclimate for the slow and sustained ripening of wine grapes.

Its free-draining stony and sandy soils combined with great sunlight interception and diurnal temperature ranges – owing to its altitude of 4000ft above sea level – allows for an optimal concentration of aromas and flavours as well as ripeness of tannins in the grapes, all the while retaining vital acidity.

The result is that Gualtallary wines possess one of the most unique profiles in all of Argentina, distinguished as being some of the freshest and most mineral in the country, combining good acidic and tannic structure with elegance.
