The heart of the mountain. An environment of a privileged ecosystem. Its winery is integrated into the mountain with its pulsations and the life that beats in the middle of stillness. The stone building immersed in the foothills and its vineyard make up an oasis in an authentic high-altitude desert. Its architecture brings together the noble materials of the Andes Mountains - rocks, boulders, gravel, sand and silt - achieving a perfect harmony with the landscape. A mountain winery integrated into the Andes. Its wines contain the heartbeat of the Andes, its vibrations that give life to a unique natural environment.
MoreCodorníu, a Spanish group that produces quality wines and cavas, is one of the leaders in the international market and following its philosophy of being present in the most prestigious wine regions, it chose Argentina as an emerging country in the production of quality wines. "Seventh" is the name of this winery. It responds to different reasons, one of them is that it is the seventh winery of the Group, it is the lucky number in Latin culture and it is the number of the day of rest, of rest.
In December 1999, the winery bought 306 hectares of land in Agrelo, Mendoza, at the foot of the Andes mountain range. In March 2000 the planting of vineyards began, which use the assisted drip irrigation system. This technology allows precise control of soil moisture through sensors and its modification locally to each vine sector. Thanks to this control, it will be possible to apply the latest techniques to improve the quality of wine such as RDI (Regulated Deficit Irrigation) and PRD (Partial Root Drying) aimed at intensifying the taste of the wine. Modern sectoral fertigation methods are also applied to ensure that each plant receives adequate nutrition to maximize quality.
