Carlos Pulenta
We changed hotels to a nice B&B and the lady there advised us the check out the bodega of Carlos Pulenta.
A relatively new vinyard by an experienced wine maker. Pulenta once owned the famous Trapiche vinyard. After that he led the Salentein bodegas for 6 years. This bodega is owned by a dutchman at the moment (and who said the dutch can only make yellow wine with foam?).
Now Pulenta started a new vinyard under his own name and it is geared to visitors: the complex is very beuatiful and the restaurant is excellent. Also the wines we got to taste here were really nice.
