    It is located at the foot of the Andes Mountains, in the heart of Valle de Uco, one of the main wine-growing areas of Argentina: 120 km from the city of Mendoza, Vista Flores, Tunuyán, within the group of properties of Clos de los Siete.

    The property comprises 130 ha at an altitude between 1,000 and 1,200 meters above sea level in Vista Flores, Tunuyán, 120 km south of the city of Mendoza. Its lands with slopes oriented to the North and East have the best sun exposure in the Southern Hemisphere. The construction of the winery began in early 2001, with the first harvest in 2002.

    On a total area of ​​8,500 m2, Monteviejo has a gravitational system with a double belt for selecting bunches and grains. Its objective is to transport the raw material without the use of pumps, taking care not to damage it in any part of the process. From the harvest to the fractionation, passing through the draining of the wine from the vats into the aging barrels, the wine follows its natural slope. Only the force of the weight of the grape is used to move it up and down.
