$23.99

In the heights of Tupungato, Cabernet Franc has found a home of its own in Argentina. The great sun exposure combined with the cool mountain breezes allows this grape variety to ripen harmoniously providing a full palette of aromas and avors: from black fruit to the freshness of tomato leaf and rosemary. Some people have described this Cabernet Franc as aromatic and expressive like a Chinon [Loire Valley] but with the tannic structure and grip of Saint Emilion [Bordeaux].
