Trapiche Estacion 1883 Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes

Aromatic Cabernet Franc from Argentina, bursting with blueberries and blackcurrants, lightened on the nose by a scattering of white pepper.

About

Viticulture: These vines are grown in the Los Arboles vineyards in the Uco Valley. Organic practices are followed as they aim to preserve the natural properties of the grapes by eliminating the use of chemicals, herbicides and fungicides.

Winemaking: The grapes are whole bunch hand harvested to ensure the best fruit is selected. All the fruit is destemmed followed by fermentation and maceration in small concrete tanks for 25 days at around 23-25ºC. Fermentation is followed by a gentle pneumatic pressing and a natural malolactic fermentation. The wine is aged for 15 months in a mix of French and American oak barrels before being filtered and bottled.

Ideal with...

Excellent with game, veal and grilled pork.
