Tasting Notes
Argento Estate Reserve Cabernet Franc 2022, an organic wine produced from 1000-meter-altitude Mendoza plots, showcases the region’s fine clay and silt soils in a sun-soaked yet temperate environment. It greets with a delicate ruby color and an aromatic bouquet of cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant leaf, and herbal spice. On the palate, it’s rich and full-bodied, with sweet, polished tannins, vivid cassis notes, and a finish that blends fruit, leafiness, and savory tannic structure. A vibrant, terroir-driven Cabernet Franc that balances ripeness with freshness.
