Ruta Provincial 94, Mendoza Province, Argentina
Pegging the Uco Valley as the next viticultural promised land, the infamous French wine consultant Michel Rolland founded Clos de los Siete in 1998 as an enclave of partner wineries that would bring Bordelais techniques to Argentine terroir. After visiting some of the valley's boutique producers, their cavernous tank rooms manned by lab-coated analysts can feel a little bit cold, but the project's role in bringing Argentine Malbec to international renown is indisputable, and there's no place like Monteviejo's sunlit roof terrace to enjoy unobstructed mountain views with your Malbec.
