Finca el Origen Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon Mountain Character 2018

Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaFrom their La Esperanza estate, in the Uco Valley, this cabernet sauvignon grows at 1200m. Post ferment, 30% of this saw time in wood for the 6 months of maturity prior to bottling. Rich and smooth, with plush cassis, blackberry jam, ripe plum stretched along a medium+ palate, finishing quickly with a grip of dryness, and a vanillin sweetness. Tannins are integrated into the plump fruit, leaving a tuggy grip in their wake. This full bodied red is primed for drinking now, with grilled steak or mushroom kabobs.Tasted: 22 February 2021Tasted by: Prices:
