Lagarde Primeras Vinas 2014

Lagarde is pleased to introduce Primeras Vinas, an exclusive collection of limited terroir selected wines. These wines represent real treasures due to the prestige and grand terroir of the chosen parcels these wines come from. They are the result of history, hard work and constant research in our most unique vineyards.

This wine comes from our high altitude vineyard Malbec, from Mendoza's most sought after appellation: Gualtallary (Monasterio). With a high concentration of limestone and the advantage of a high altitude sunlight, we are excited to introduce the new vintage of this wine, which comes from selected parcels of this vineyard. This wine is a wonderful example of this appellation, since it showcases the personality, perfume and a strong sense of origin. It was aged in French oak casks, reducing the aging intervention to a minimum in order to respect the wine and its potential.
