Cuvelier Los Andes “Vin Nature”
The History
The Cuvelier Los Andes S.A. vineyard was planted in 1999
with a density of 5500 plants per hectare. Today the vine
yard stretches over 55 hectares (136 acres) with 10 hectares still to plant. The main grape variety is Malbec. We have also planted Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and
Petit Verdot. This enables us to create our own blended Vidnes and also contribute to those of Clos de los Siete. Basking in the warm, dry climate of Mendoza, cooled by
the refreshing night air of the Andes, our vines are ideally situated to express the character of their various grape varieties in this stony, alluvial gravel soil.
The Grape
55% Malbec, 45% Merlot
