Catherine Péré-Vergé purchased Chateau Montviel in 1985, adding Le Gay, Tristen and La Violette to her burgeoning Pomerol holdings soon thereafter. In 1988, Péré-Vergé hired Michel Rolland as her consultant, and a decade later, the two became instrumental in helping create the Clos de los Siete project in Argentina. Sadly, she died at 74 n April, 2013.
