I agree–the Cuvelier des Andes was my favorite wine when I visted the property a few months ago.
Best,

Something like a supermarket wine with some “pointuable” characteristics. A lot of it is made and believe me… it does not age… at all. My 03′s are gone, no fruit left. It is a wine to be drunk on release and, to be honest, I’m bored with it.

On the other hand, the CL7 group does some really good wine. Cuvelier des Andes (Gran Cru), Linda Flor (malbec and Chard which is one of the best from South America).

Look for Punto Final from Bodegas Renacer. The reserva has a little too much wood for my taste but is a good wine.

I have always been interested in comparing grapes that aren’t as popular in France, vs, a country where it grows pretty well. The first example having always been Malbec, the other in my mind has always been Carmenere.
