THE MOVE OF THE YEAR: RUTINI WINES STRENGTHENS ITS WINEMAKING LEGACY WITH THE ADDITION OF JUAN PABLO MURGIA

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) This bold move unites two generations of Argentine winemaking talent. Di Paola's deep experience and house style-built on elegance, precision, and terroir expression-meets Murgia's fresh perspective, rooted in sustainability, global relevance, and innovation. Together, they will shape the next chapter of Rutini's legacy while strengthening its role as a benchmark for South American fine wine.

"This is more than a hire-it's a statement of intent," says the Rutini Wines team. "We're bringing together two visionary minds who share an unwavering commitment to identity, precision, and continuous improvement."

Named one of the Top 30 Winemakers in the World by Decanter, Mariano Di Paola is known for his signature sensitivity to the Uco Valley's complex terroirs and has been instrumental in crafting some of Argentina's most celebrated wines, including the Single Vineyard Malbec Gualtallary, which recently earned Best in Show honors.

Juan Pablo Murgia, meanwhile, is widely recognized as one of the leading voices in Argentina's new wave of winemakers. His international training and technical expertise have earned him acclaim for creating wines that blend authenticity and sophistication, always driven by origin, finesse, and forward-thinking strategy.

Murgia's appointment follows the recent addition of Martina Galeano , a UC Davis–trained oenologist, and reflects the winery's vision of strengthening its future through bold talent and global perspective. The dynamic winemaking team now driving Rutini Wines and sister winery Bodega La Rural is firmly positioned to carry the legacy forward.

With this bold move, Rutini Wines reaffirms its commitment to prestige, excellence, and quality as the pillars of both its present and future.
