DESCRIPTION

This wine comes from the Jujuy region in Argentina, which is located near the equator. It has an intense aroma with spicy notes of green peppers and menthol. On the palate, there's a medium-bodied character that echoes the aromas from the nose, with pronounced acidity, balanced tannins, and a long finish.

REGION

Cafayate

Argentina

Cafayate is a wine region in northwestern Argentina, located in the Calchaqui Valley - one of the highest places in the world suitable for viticulture. The Calchaqui Valley surrounds Cafayate and has some of the most spectacular scenery in Argentina, changing quickly and dramatically from desert to mountains and subtropical climate. The terroir is particularly suited to the Torrontes Riojana grape, but wines made from Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon are also produced here.

Svelte et racé

Un Cabernet Franc d’altitude, droit et élégant. Arômes de fruits rouges frais, de poivre vert et d’herbes séchées. Bouche tendue, tanins fins, finale légèrement saline. Une belle expression de ce cépage souvent méconnu en Argentine.

Puissant et élégant : un rouge qui ne laisse pas indifférent

Ce vin s'accorde parfaitement avec des plats à base de viandes rouges grillées, des ragoûts, ou encore des fromages affinés.

Pure, Savory, and Expressively Argentinian

This isn’t a green or underripe Cabernet Franc—it’s rich in red and black fruits, with floral top notes, dusty minerality, and a long, graceful finish. A fine example of the varietal’s elegance when grown at altitude.

Elegant & Distinctive High-Altitude Cabernet Franc

The 2020 'Franc Dupont' shows off the finesse of Cafayate’s terroir—aromas of black cherry, graphite, and dried herbs lead into a refined, medium-bodied palate. Silky tannins, fresh acidity, and a whisper of spice make this a beautifully balanced and food-friendly red.

Smooth and Fruity Surprise

Smooth and fruity, with a pleasant burst of red berries and a touch of spice on the finish. Had it with grilled chicken and a mushroom risotto—fantastic pairing. Great value for money for a bottle this elegant.
