Los Cardos Merlot 2002

The Thistle...a flower of surprising colour and unequalled beauty. It is the unmistaken symbol of the presence of good terroir, where grapes of the highest quality are grown. In Ugarteche, Lujan de Cuyo, at more than 1000 metres above sea level, our grapes enjoy a permanent fresh mountain breeze which descends from the Andes. The vineyards are submerged in this imposing yet silent landscape, where the intense lilac color of the thistle flourishes among the vines. Unchangeable, the original beauty of the thistle, growing larger with the passing of time...our Los Cardos wines do the same.
