Produced from 100% malbec sourced from various top sites in the Mendoza region of Argentina, Festivo could be called the winery’s entry-level bottling, but there is nothing at all "entry" about it. In fact, one of the world’s most in-demand wine consultants, Michel Rolland, who lists way too many top-notch Bordeaux, Napa and Italian names on his client roster to begin mentioning them here, has a hand in the making of this wine. Showing all of the pure plum and dark berry fruit of the 2004, Monteviejo’s 2006 also had considerably more complexity, a touch of minerality (not too common a descriptor for malbec, but the good ones have it), excellent texture and mid palate complexity, and just loads of character.
