It was in 1923, at the Château du Barry , that the history of the Mouty vineyards began.
Donat Mouty , enamored of the culture of Saint-Émilion wines, then set his sights on the vines of Château du Barry.

Over the centuries, the Jouffreau family at Clos de Gamot, has cultivated vines, produced wine and lived to the rhythm of the moments of glory or misfortune of Cahors wine. The most serious misfortune came in 1882, with phylloxera that began to attack the Clos de Gamot vineyard: Guillaume Jouffreau had just saved the Clos de Gamot vineyard but also the entire Cahors vineyard that will be replanted largely thanks to the clones coming from the Clos de Gamot, a 15-hectare vineyard with a single grape variety, Malbec, on a magnificent clay-limestone-silica terroir, with pebbles and flint.
Clos de Gamot represents today the most ‘traditional’ aspect of Cahors, having been one of the most innovative in the region. No barriques here; the aging, which lasts about two years, is done only in the ‘Foudres’ and the ‘Demi-Muids’, producing wines that never play on the abundance of primary aromas.
For many years, the isolated mountain valleys of Northern Argentina were home to the Incas. Today the valleys are home to the highest vineyards in

This Malbec is vinified in a modern style with cooler temperatures, in order to keep the delicate fruity character of the Malbec grape.

A great Argentinean Malbec offering aromas of red fruits and plums with violets and subtle, toasty vanilla notes.
Opus One is the realized dream of two men: Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux and Napa Valley vintner Robert Mondavi. Together, our founders set out to create a single wine dedicated to the pursuit of uncompromising quality. This singular mission shapes every vintage, today and for generations to come.
The “Opus One” is the result of a careful selection of the best Cabernet Sauvignon bunches, which are combined with small percentages of other varieties of Bordeaux origin. It matures in new oak barrels for about 17 months. The result is a red wine of incredible depth and elegance. Long and enveloping, it probably represents the best that California wine has been able to express for decades.
Brioso means “a fervent love of challenge” and expresses a passionate spirit to create a wine that reaches the most sublime quality. Refined and elegant, this blend is the result of the combination of my oenological skills and knowledge and the uniqueness of Agrelo, one of the best terroirs in Argentina.
Susana Balbo is regarded as Argentina’s finest female winemaker, and this Brioso is a great wine which showcase her talents. It’s consistently good quality year on year with recent vintages aiming to be more European in style, less fruit driven and more traditional Bordeaux.

Every wine collector must have a bottle in the cellar.
Many Malbec associate with powerful, robust and sweet-fruited red wines, but Susana Balbo chooses instead to emphasize the elegant fruity and minerality of the grape variety.
