Salentein to up Argentine on-trade presence

Published: 11 November, 2011

Mendoza-based wine group, Salentein, is to extend its on-trade presence by supplying Wine Studio - the premium hotel and restaurant distribution arm of Matthew Clark.

Wine Studio, will list a collection of high-end wines from Salentein in a bid to drive the Argentine category into 2012.

The wines include Salentein's high altitude Uco Valley collection of Salentein Reserve, Numina and Primus wines.

The latest news follows the earlier success of Salentein's 2011 listings with Matthew Clark, which saw a total of 11 wines added to the distributor's portfolio.

Wine Studio's marketing director, Mike Miller, said: "Salentein is a forward thinking producer, with a great range of wines, ideal for the premium on trade market.

"Argentina as a country is resonating more with the trade in terms of quality, diversity and discovery, so the match is a perfect proposition."

Wine Studio will also offer the Rupes wines from Bodegas Callia based in San Juan.

Salentein is handled in the UK by Cheshire based importer D&D Wines International. Details of trade prices can be obtained from www.wine-studio.co.uk.
