Characteristics
VIEWDeep ruby red color with violet reflections. Clean, bright, and attractive.
NOSEIntense aromas of black cherries, blueberries, and ripe plums. Spicy notes of black pepper appear, with a subtle undertone of vanilla and sweet tobacco, a result of its aging in seasoned French oak barrels.
MouthGentle entry, with fine, well-integrated tannins. It has a good balance between juicy dark fruit, the freshness of its natural acidity, and a medium structure that makes it very versatile. The finish is long, with notes of red berries and a slight spicy hint.
Empanadas Our spicy beef empanadas find their ideal partner in this wine. The tannins balance the fat of the meat, and its acidity accompanies the intensity of the seasonings.
Provoleta The creaminess and smoky flavor of the melted cheese are enhanced by the spicy notes of the Cabernet, creating a delicious contrast with the wine.
Pork ribs Grilling and ribs, with their smoky and juicy flavors, benefit greatly from a wine's firm structure, while the acidity helps to cleanse the palate between bites.
Red Meats: The wine pairs perfectly with grilled meats. The intensity of its red fruit and tannins balance the juiciness and deep flavor of the roasted meat.
Oxtail An ideal pairing. The depth of the stew and its protein content harmonize with the tannins of the Cabernet, and the wine highlights the spicy notes of the dish without competing with its intensity.
Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina
This Cabernet Sauvignon is a modern and vibrant interpretation of the classic varietal, created by Susana Balbo, one of Argentina's most influential winemakers. Sourced from high-altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley, more than 1,000 meters above sea level, it offers a fresh, elegant, and accessible expression.
Fermented at controlled temperatures and aged for 8 months in used French oak barrels, this wine achieves a perfect harmony between fruit, structure, and subtlety.
On the nose, it offers intense aromas of black cherries, ripe plums and a subtle spicy background with hints of vanilla and pepper. On the palate, it is full, with round tannins and a balanced acidity that provides tension and liveliness. Its finish is long, flavorful, and persistent.
A Cabernet that seduces with both its varietal expression and its versatility at the table.
