Verum Selección de Familia Cabernet Franc

Blend: 100% Cabernet Franc

Location: High Valley, Rio Negro, Patagonia

Altitude: 300 M.A.S.L.

Alcohol: 14.5% ABV

Tasting Note: Classic elements of Cabernet Franc on the nose including wild strawberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant. This is riper than a typical old world Cabernet Franc and does not show too much stalkiness, instead it offers more depth of fruit and a slight touch of mint. The fuller bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit.

Vinification: The wine is aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels

Vegetarian: Yes

Vegan: Yes

Food Match: This is a serious wine with complexity, depth and structure. It needs a match that is equally weighty and powerful. T-Bone steak, venison or partridge would all work particularly well.
