The history of the Cuvelier family is marked, since 1804, by the path of wine, melting “French know-how, with the Argentine experience and the Mendoza terroir”. Bodega Cuvelier Los Andes is part of the prestigious and recognized CLOS DE LOS 7. Located in Valle de Uco, Mendoza. Currently, this region has the highest concentration of high-altitude vineyards in the world. It is a valley formed by high peaks, with a wide temperature range that provides a high quality of raw material. In 1998 Michel Rolland, Advising Oenologist of Château Léoville Poyferré and Château Le Crock, offered the Cuvelier family to invest in their Andean project. Bertrand and Jean-Guy, seduced by the Mendoza region and by the "Clos de los Siete" project, decided to launch Cuvelier Los Andes, with the aim of implementing their Grand Cru Classé de Bordeaux production techniques in the Uco Valley, to develop wines of excellence and suitable for storage, in a very Bordeaux style, aiming to create Malbec-based assemblages that can be proudly presented as the Argentine cousins ​​of Château Léoville-Poyferré. The vineyards were planted from 1999 to 2006 and cover 55 hectares with a density of 5,500 vines per hectare. Malbec is the majority, completed by Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. The entire vineyard is worked 'low yield', organically and biodynamically. From the beginning, the family decided to entrust the future Cuvelier Los Andes to a Mendoza winemaker with vast experience, Adrian Manchón, First Winemaker and General Manager. As of 2009, Baptiste and Guillaume Cuvelier are in charge of the project, being the second generation of the family in Mendoza and taking their wines to the best and most demanding markets in the world. In constant search for challenges, they aspire to create excellent quality wines, designing them from the vineyard and elaborating them with the passion and tradition that characterizes us, so that they become the maximum expression of their terroir.
