This 100% Cabernet Franc was grown at 1100mts altitude in the Lujan de Cuyo subregion of Mendoza. It is dark and brooding, with rich aromas of dark fruit and black spice with a hint of mint. On the palate it is fresh, pure and elegant, similar to a Cabernet Franc from the Loire but with a little more depth of fruit and body. Drink slightly chilled as an apero or enjoy with lamb stew, pork, game or chocolate desserts.

Rated 95pts and a Gold Medal, Decanter Wine Awards 2022
Hervé Joyaux Fabre moved to Mendoza in Argentina from Bordeaux in the early 1980s to set up his winery, Fabre Montmayou. For the past 40 or so years he has been producing excellent Malbecs – both at high altitudes (and therefore cooler temperatures) in Mendoza, and further south in cooler climate Patagonia. He was also one of the pioneers in planting Cabernet Franc in his vineyards in Mendoza over 20 years ago, and his Fabre Montmayou Cabernet Franc Reserva is consistently a benchmark example of this grape at a great value price, regularly winning international trophies in the UK’s Decanter Magazine and International Wine Challenge.
