Ruben's Story

 Since I was a teenager I was in love with the wine-world. After high school I had to decide medicine or winemaking......I think that I made the correct decision!

What do I love about winemaker?

EVERYTHING!

The chance of being in contact with the nature, working in a team, not being in an office all day and to create something that the people will enjoy.

I graduated as an Onologist-Fruit Expert at the Colegio Vitivinícola Don Bosco in Mendoza. I have worked for many wineries in my own country and also in the Napa region and in Spain to broaden my experience. I joined Septima in 2000 as their main oenologist, responsible for the cellars' fine wines.

Wow what a really lovely surprise. Wasn't expecting much so was doubly surprised. Great strong flavour and taste. Oak works and a wine I loved. If you want a woody full chardonay (don't worry about the contradiction) sit back and enjoy.

A very classy chardonnay but don't over chill it.

I can't buy enough of this wine. - It is sublime. If you love Burgundy lookalikes but want to avoid the ridiculous prices and the years you may spend sipping through dull bottles in search of the perfect chardonnay experience, then buy this wine. Every time you drink this wine there is something to savour and it never disappoints.

This is the best white I've tasted in ages...sublime! Just the ticket after a frantic week and a few short nights' sleep. Now off for some Ben and Jerry's - chocolate fudge brownie I think.
