Cabernet Franc

Argentina
Mendoza
2021

The fruit is sourced primarily from Agrelo, with thirty percent of the fruit coming from La Consulta. After a cool fermentation, the wine is aged for one year in thirty percent American and seventy percent French oak. To preserve the character of the fruit, the wine is then bottled with unfined and unfiltered, with no cold stabilization; this may result in sediment in the bottle, so a decant before serving is recommended.

"Black fruit, dark plums, tobacco leaves, violets and allspice on the nose. Bubblegum, too. Medium-bodied with sleek tannins. Fruity and flavorful with some candied-fruit character. Vegan. Drink now or hold. "
