Open the Door to Discovery
Lamadrid founder Guillermo García Lamadrid opened the door from his home in Cuba when he was a child. With the turbulence in Cuba at the time of the Revolution, his mother Matilde put him on an airplane to embark on a new life. Many more doors opened during his lifetime, all leading to Argentina and the building of the Lamadrid winery in one of the oldest and most premier growing regions in Argentina: Agrelo, “the land of Malbec,” Mendoza. Lamadrid’s mission is to be the best representation of its Agrelo terroir.
Following their philosophy that “Wine Is Made In The Vineyard, Let The Terroir Speak For Itself,” Lamadrid owns three vineyards in Agrelo: Finca La Matilde (planted 1929), Finca Lamadrid (1973), and Finca La Suiza (2004). With winemaker Angie Yañez at the helm, their wines are all estate grown from one of these single vineyards, and follow organic and sustainable farming practices. The vineyards are irrigated with the pure water from the Andes and the wines are vinified using only indigenous yeasts with no fining or filtration.
Gabriela García is the global brand ambassador and Leonardo Garbi director of sales. In addition to Malbecs, Lamadrid is renowned as a leading producer of high-quality Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Bonarda.
As Robert Parker said, Lamadrid is “A great value winery to look for.”

From the 90 year-old Matilde vineyard. A beautiful and age-worthy expression of classic Malbec. It takes 3 vines to make just 1 bottle.
