Bodega DiamAndes Wine
In 2005, the Bonnie family,
owner of the renowned
Château Malartic-Lagravière
(Grand Cru Classé de
Graves) and of the Château
Gazin Rocquencourt (Pessac-
Léognan), decided to leave
France in search for new
horizons in the world of
wine. It all began with the
acquisition, along with their
partners, of a single 130-
hectares (321 acres) block of
land in the heart of the Uco
Valley, to the south of the
city of Mendoza. That is
where Bodega DiamAndes
was born, as a member of
the prestigious Clos de los
Siete group. The winery's
architectural design blends
harmoniously into the
stunning Andean scenery. In
this context, the winemaking
process has taken place
under exceptional conditions
since the 2007 vintage.
The name DiamAndes is a
pun on the words “diamante”
(Spanish for “diamond”)
and “Andes” (the name of
the mountains that provide a
background to the estate).
Alfred-Alexandre Bonnie
came up with it one day as
he was enjoying a barbecue
at Laguna del Diamante, in
Mendoza. The reflection of
the Maipo volcano on the
lake made him associate the
two words. |
