Happy New Year!

I hope everyone and your families had a great New Year’s Eve! 2009 is setting up to be a spectacular year already. Algodon Mansion is opening, we have new wines and labels, the opening of our 18 hole golf course, a future polo field…and the year has barely even started. Let's get busy, and stay busy! Happy New Year! By the way, I received an email from a colleague vacationing at Algodon Wine Estates over the holiday, which I’d like to include a passage from; “Scott, I am here in AWE – so beautiful! Today there were quite a few golfers, people eating in the restaurant, taking tours of the winery etc. I am doing the Ruta del Vino & checking out Mendoza tomorrow…” That was a good email to get, and a nice way to start the year. Have a great 2009! -Scott Mathis
