LagardeGuarda Malbec D.O.C.Guarda is a range of wines resulting from long periods of research and examination of the best terroirs within our estates. Each wine is an accurate reflection of a special vineyard located in a micro region. The Luján de Cuyo Controlled Denomination of Origin Board, a nonprofit civil association formed by regional winemakers and grape growers, was created on October 12th, 1989 to protect promote and disseminate, through the establishment of the first Denomination of Origin in America, the characteristic red cepage that chiefly consists of the Malbec variety. The wines from Luján de Cuyo, which are entitled to have the so longed for Luján de Cuyo C.D.O. legend printed on the label, must meet strict requirements.
