Description
A sophisticated blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from a mixture of the properties younger vines and also ‘off cuts’ from their top wines. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and the wine is aged for 7 months in tank and a further 3 months in bottle prior to release. There’s plenty of blackcurrant and red and dark berry fruits, hints of graphite and a tantalising herbal note. This delicious red shows a lightness of touch that belies it’s complex nose. Delicious now after a decent decant but with the potential to age for a good 4 – 5 years.

2020 Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza, Mendoza
Cabernet Franc
The Verum Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza has classic elements on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. Lovely ripe fruits with a hint of stalky/vegetal character but not too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The full-bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.
