Tiano & Nareno

The year is 1908. Two young Italians, 20-year-old Sebastiano Accorrà and 18-year-old Nazzareno Savina, left behind their villages, their families, and their native soil to board a boat bound for Argentina. Their journey was part of a wider migration that shaped modern-day Argentina, a nation that welcomed immigrants from across Europe into its vast open spaces. As an old saying goes, “The people of Latin America are descended from the Incas, Aztecs and Mayas; the Argentinians descended from the boats.”

After 18 days at sea, Sebastiano, known as Tiano, and Nazzareno, known as Nareno, landed at the port of Buenos Aires. But the bustling city was not their final stop. Their true destination lay over 600 miles westward, in Mendoza, at the foot of the imposing Andes. It was here, in a land with centuries of winemaking tradition, that they built new lives, cultivated vines, and raised their families, laying the foundations of a legacy that would endure.

A century later, their story continues through a rare and extraordinary cuvée. Produced from meticulously selected plots of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, Tiano & Nareno represents the ultimate expression of Argentine terroir fused with European heritage. First released in 2010 with only 880 magnums, the wine immediately established itself as one of Argentina’s best-kept secrets. Powerful yet refined, it combines richness, depth, and elegance, making it a collector’s treasure crafted for true wine lovers.
