Catena San Carlos Cabernet Franc

A distinguished red wine from the San Carlos region of Mendoza, Argentina, crafted from 100% Cabernet Franc grapes by the renowned Bodega Catena Zapata. Sourced from high-altitude vineyards with sandy-loam soils, this wine undergoes cold maceration before aging for approximately 12 months in French oak barrels. It features a deep ruby color with violet tones and an expressive bouquet of ripe red berries, black raspberry, and plum, accented by notes of eucalyptus, black pepper, and fresh herbs. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and vibrant with concentrated fruit flavors, robust yet smooth tannins, and a lengthy finish with savory hints of cedar and graphite. Ideal for pairing with roast lamb, grilled red meats, or hard cheeses.
