This delicious blend of 60% Cabernet Franc, 35% Malbec and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon comes from vineyards planted at 1500mts altitude in the Gualtallary sub region of Mendoza’s Uco Valley. It displays a wild freshness of fruit with hints of mineral and spice. It spent 16 months in French oak barrels which have helped add complexity and a smooth, velvety finish. Bordeaux finesse combined with Andes mountain fruit concentration! Enjoy with a rack of lamb in a rich jus.

“The best and most approachable of the Alta-Yari reds right now, this blend features Cabernet Franc with 35% Malbec and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon from the upper reaches of Gualtallary. Grassy, jarilla and bay leaf aromas segue into a fresh, vibrant, layered palate of red cherry and bramble supported by fine tannins and framed by oak.” 95/100pts Tim Atkin MW
