92

"A delicious nose of fresh brambleberries, red and darker shades of licorice, cedar and hot stones. Full body and chewy, structured tannins, but some playful acidity provides balance and keeps the whole package fresh through a medium-long finish. Drink in 2023."

92 Wine Enthusiast

"Cool herbal notes of forest and juniper are infused into berry fruit aromas, while this Cabernet from a good vintage feels full and a touch jagged. Spiced berry flavors are lightly herbal and turn more oaky and toasted the longer this sits. A finish of medium length is more bright and lifted than dense and dark. Drink through 2023. -MS"

Product Description:

High altitude, old vines Cabernet Sauvignon grown in one of the most value-driven regions in the world? Yes please! The Finca La Anita Cabernet Sauvignon hails from vineyards 2700 feet in elevation in Argentina's famed Mendoza region. The cool evenings allow the fruit to settle from the warm daytime sun, providing a wonderfully energetic and lively wine that is full of flavor and balanced beyond belief!

Winemaker Soledad Vargas's deft hand in the winery does the rest. The wine spends a year in French and American oak - either new or a year old - which complements the gorgeous fruit perfectly. Bright and clear, the wine is packed with beautiful notes of red fruits, a mild peppery spice, spicebox and cocoa. The tannins are perfectly integrated and frame the wine without being overpowering; it finishes long and smooth - a perfect ride from end-to-end!
