Description
92 Descorchados Patricio Tapia
There’s a delicious tension between acidity and red fruit in this wine. The aromas are reminiscent of cherries and on the palate, and that acidity combines with notes of ripe and fresh red fruits to build a fluid palate, with fine, very sharp tannins. This is an excellent interpretation of a mountain red, it’s generous in freshness and has an herbal finish that provides complexity. Ready to drink now with pasta with pesto.
Winemaker’s Notes:
Family vintners for over 100 years, the Catenas are recognized for their pioneering role in high-altitude viticulture in Argentina. This Cabernet Franc is sourced from the familys historic vineyards in San Carlos. Here, the sandy-loam soils and mountainous climate yield a wine with concentrated ripe red berries, a touch of eucalyptus and black pepper, robust tannins and smooth lengthy finish.
