Rio Mendoza Estate wines are our collection of 100% varietal wines and are
the result of a careful selection of hand-picked grapes from our own vineyards,
which are carefully and personally managed. Fifty percent of this Cabernet
Sauvignon was aged in French oak for 8 to 10 months.

STORY:

Bodega Lagarde’s history dates back to the early years of grapevine
cultivation and the wine industry of Mendoza, in Argentina. Established in
1897 and managed by the Pescarmona family since 1970, we have always
worked to achieve the same goal of producing the highest quality wine,
holding a strong commitment to our land and its people. We are one of the
oldest family owned and managed wineries in the heart of Mendoza and
we are proud to count with historic and centennial vineyards that were
planted in 1906 and 1930.
