It is here where our wines are born. 300 days of sun, deep roots, and alluvial soil create the most ideal of conditions for these MYTHIC Argentine wines. Winemaker Bernardo Bossi Bonilla – winemaker extraordinaire. Bernie spent years honing his skills at Argentine powerhouses Catena, Tikal, and Casarena before embarking on his very own label, MYTHIC. No longer handcuffed by management and bean-counters, Bernardo is afforded the freedom to craft his wines exactly how he sees fit…. quite a rare feat with the proliferation of factory wineries..
