Tasting Note

Purple colour with red ruby tones. The nose offers elegant aromas of spices, and fresh herbs as thyme and rosemary, red berries, cassis and raspberries, with layers of cedar. The mouthfeel is full and rich with cassis, raspberries flavours and notes of black pepper and oregano. The finish is bright and fresh with finely grained tannins.

Product Notes

Bodega Catena Zapata Appellation San Carlos Cabernet Franc is an expressive Argentine red that reflects the high-altitude vineyards of the Uco Valley in Mendoza. Grown in San Carlos, the grapes benefit from sunny days, cool nights, and mountain-influenced conditions that encourage ripeness while preserving freshness. The wine typically offers aromas of ripe red and dark berries, violet, herbs, and subtle spice. On the palate, it combines bright fruit with fine tannins, lively acidity, and a savory, lingering finish. Enjoy it with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or flavorful cheeses. It is a compelling introduction to Argentine Cabernet Franc and its distinctive character.
