Phebus: Where Argentine Dreams and French Passion Meet
The Phebus story begins with Hervé J. Fabre, a French wine visionary who traveled to Argentina in the 1990s. Enchanted by the magic of the Malbec grape, he laid the foundation for Fabre Montmayou in 1992. His pioneering spirit led to the creation of unique Argentine wines, each with its own distinct character.The Art of Patience and Perfection
The grapes for this Merlot Reservado grow in the fertile soils of the Alto Valle de Rio Negro, Patagonia, and Mendoza. Here, where the vines average thirty years of age, the grapes are lovingly harvested by hand between April 18th and 27th. To ensure that only the finest grapes are used, they undergo a meticulous double selection. The winemaking process is one of dedication: from cold skin maceration to fermentation at controlled temperatures, followed by aging in French oak barrels.Taste the Passion of Phebus Merlot Reservado
