Bodega Monteviejo
Bodega Monteviejo is the fruit of an adventure launched in 1998 when oenologist Michel Rolland and Jean-Michel Arcaute decided to embark on an ambitious winegrowing project. Argentina offered both the space and the opportunity to plant without reserve, with a promising end result: a great wine on a good terroir at an attractive price... They have enough arguments to bring together seven investors, all winegrowers(Catherine Péré-Vergé owner of Château Montviel in Pomerol, but also Laurent Dassault owner in Saint-Emilion, as well as Bertrand Otto representing La Compagnie Vinicole E. Rotschild, and Bertrand Cuvelier) around a fine viticulture project in the province of Mendoza. Bodega Monteviejo will be created at Vistaflores, an estate of 847 hectares of vines.

Divided into seven bodegas, the complex has been christened Le Clos de los Siete. The aim: to give optimum expression to this beautiful terroir worthy of the world's greatest red wine terroirs. To achieve this, Michel Rolland has left nothing to chance. The vineyard is all vertical trellising, with a density of 5,500 vines per hectare, the historic density of the old Malbecs that have made this variety's reputation. The wine from Bodega Monteviejo, owned by the Péré-Vergé family, is made exclusively from this Malbec. Harvesting is manual, with bunch sorting, de-stemming and grain sorting. After vinification, Bodega Monteviejo 's wines are aged in French oak barrels for 16 months, giving an astonishingly high quality.

(2012 vintage notes)

Lindflor Malbec comes from high-altitude vineyards in Mendoza's Valle de Uco. The powerful, sunny nose offers very ripe fruit (black cherry), licorice, pepper and a subtle touch of nutmeg. Round, smooth and long-lasting, Lindaflor Malbec is a beautiful and faithful expression of Mendoza's high terroirs.

"Once the whole bunches had been pressed, the vat-fermented Lindaflor Chardonnay 2017 was vinified and aged in barrels, 30% of which were new. the wine was aged in barrels for 12 months on lees, with bâtonnage. Slightly woody and spicy, it comes from a single parcel planted in 2004 and still used for this wine. The wood is well integrated and it has a creamy texture while retaining freshness and intense flavors. A clean, upright wine." (Wine Advocate 2018 - Robert Parker) A very fine white cuvée!

"La Violeta 2008 is the second vintage of this cuvée, aged like La Violette in Pomerol, and limited to 15.5% alcohol. Its opulent, heady bouquet reminds me of its Pomerol counterpart in its youth. It offers a wide range of notes of ripe red cherry, crème de cassis, vanilla and blueberry jam, all enveloped in creamy oak. The palate is full-bodied, with velvety tannins and low acidity. Everything here is beautifully blended with well-melted new oak. A sumptuous wine for hedonists. Drink now through 2016 and beyond."

"Petite Fleur rouge 2013 is a blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot, partially barrel-aged for a year. The wood is highly integrated, leaving no trace of woody aromas in this fruity nose of black plums and cherries. The palate is medium to full-bodied, rather fine, juicy and lifted by a lovely freshness." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker) A new-world wine with a decidedly Bordeaux style!

"The 2008 Monteviejo has a floral bouquet of crushed violets, black cherry and black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied, with a velvety attack, good acidity and remarkable purity. Rounded and sensual, with seductive notes and a long finish. A beautiful Argentine red. Drink through 2017." (Wine Advocate 2012 - Robert Parker). A must-try!

Score : Robert Parker 90/100
Like its distant Bordeaux cousins, this Petite Fleur 2006 is predominantly Malbec, a grape particularly well acclimatized to the topographical and climatic constraints of the Uco Valley. With notes of toast, spices, violet and morello cherry, it offers a supple structure and great elegance. A wine to discover!
