Tasting profile

Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry

Cabernet Franc from Finca la Guaguita at 2,035 metres, where altitude keeps the variety's herbal lift bright rather than green. Red currant and black cherry sit over violet and a graphite edge, with the peppery snap Cabernet Franc always carries. Twelve months in French oak, half of it new, gives frame without masking the fruit — firm, fresh, and built to hold a decade and more.

Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
