PerSe is the personal project of Edgardo (Edy) del Popolo and David Bonomi, two pioneers in the Argentine wine industry. The two met in 1995 while working together at a local winery and have since become leading figures in Argentina’s wine scene. David is one of the most knowledgeable oenologists in the Uco Valley, with extensive experience across the region, from Altamira in the south to Gualtallary in the north. Edy, who grew up in Mendoza’s vineyards, studied oenology and agronomy and has worked with some of Argentina’s most renowned estates. Their vineyards are in Gualtallary, a high-altitude region in Tupungato, Uco Valley, where they cultivate small plots of just 0.2-0.5 hectares at around 1,300 meters above sea level. The high altitude creates cooler day and night temperatures, averaging 3-6°C lower than in Mendoza city, which allows only certain plots to produce the exceptional quality of grapes they seek.
