lgodon Wine Estates
When CNN/Money Magazine recently selected four of the best
destinations in the world for retirement, three of the cities were in
the United States and one was located in a picturesque corner
of Argentine wine country: San Rafael, Mendoza.
Could there have been a better validation for the US-based
investor group that chose to call San Rafael home four years
ago? They arrived in 2007 with the vision of living the
winemaker’s dream. Today, that dream is becoming a reality...

A New Bottle for Argentine Malbec
Veralia Argentina, a global glass manufacturer with offices in Mendoza, is rolling out
three distinctive bottles that will carry the stamp “Malbec Argentina.” The company
has been working on the initiative for three years and believes it will help Argentine
Malbecs easier to identify in foreign grocery and liquor stores, according to Los
Andes’ Miguel Angel Flores. This could prove especially true in the United States
where most retailers tend to group Argentine wines under a catch-all category like
“South American wines.” The new bottles are part of the Ecova line which Veralia
introduced in 2009 and come in three different sizes to indicate the individual wine’s
quality : Maipo (premium), Cuyo (super premium) and Icono (self explanatory).
DeNiro, Bono Investing In Mendoza
Pairing is everything when it comes to fine wine and cuisine, and the pairing of the
world’s greatest living actor with one of the world’s best wine producing
regions would be “a maridaje increíble.” According to Los Andes, Robert De Niro
may soon join the list of celebrities investing in Mendoza vines. The legendary actor
is interested in purchasing an approximately 100-acre vineyard in Mendoza. While
the deal has not closed, the paper says negotiations for a Mendoza vineyard are fairly
advanced. Earlier this year U2 lead singer Bono was spotted in Mendoza shopping
for his own private vineyard. Sources say the tentative name for Bobby D’s Argentine
wine is fittingly Rodrigo Mendoza, the same name of the character he played
opposite Jeremy Irons in the 1986 film, The Mission.
