Cabernet Sauvignon

REGION: Argentina/Mendoza
GRAPES: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

These Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were discovered at altitude in some of Mendoza’s best terroirs, including the Agrelo and Vistaflores subregions. Vineyards are planted at high density in the foothills of the Andes Mountains, starting above 975 meters (3,200 feet), where the altitude and poor soil result in lower yields and a cooler climate for balanced wines. Grapes are handpicked, destemmed and manually sorted, with only perfectly ripe fruit.

TASTING NOTE
Aromas of black fruit and vanilla, loaded with flavors of ripe and juicy black fruit, combined with creamy tannins. Beautiful structure and texture framed with touches of chocolate and toffee from the oak aging. The wine will continue to develop and improve for up to five years.

FOOD PAIRING
A stealthy, silky wine, perfect for stewed and braised meats, grilled vegetables and righteous thievery.
