In the heart of Clos de los Siete, Bodega DiamAndes stands as a winemaking haven, producing wines that resonate with intensity and finesse from their beautiful vineyards high up in Argentina's Uco Valley.
Set up in 2005 by the esteemed Bonnie Family (the famous name behind Malartic Lagraviere & Gazin Rocquencourt), this is another very successful project from an established Bordeaux dynasty.

Vintage report
Nobody will confuse 2020 with a boring vintage in Mendoza. The growing season brought everything from late spring frost scares to a mercifully cool summer that kept the grapes hanging longer than usual, building flavour without the punishing heat that can bake the life out of Argentine reds. When harvest finally arrived, it stretched later into April for many producers, giving them time to pick with precision rather than panic.
The result is a vintage that feels both powerful and controlled—Malbec shows real depth without the jammy weight that sometimes plagues warmer years, whilst Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc have a freshness that makes them sing in the glass. We're drinking the wines now with genuine pleasure, though the best examples have the structure to reward patience over the next decade. This is one of those vintages where the extra time on the vine paid dividends in wines that taste like they know exactly what they want to be.
