Pulenta Estate was founded in 2002 by brothers Eduardo and Hugo Pulenta, third-generation winemakers carrying on their family's century-old winemaking tradition. Nestled in the prestigious Alto Agrelo region of Mendoza, Argentina, the estate benefits from high-altitude vineyards (980 meters above sea level) and pure meltwater from the Andes, creating ideal conditions for producing world-class wines. The Pulenta family story began in 1902 when Angelo Antonio Polenta emigrated from Italy to Mendoza. By 1914, he had purchased land and built his first winery, laying the foundation for a family-owned wine business that flourished for generations. Although the original company was sold in 1997, Eduardo and Hugo revived their family legacy with the creation of Pulenta Estate just a few years later. Today, Pulenta Estate spans 135 hectares of meticulously maintained vineyards. Their wine portfolio showcases the essence of Mendoza's terroir, combining traditional Italian heritage with modern winemaking expertise and sustainable viticulture.
