Particular Cabernet Franc
Tasting Notes
The grapes come from Uco Valley, or more precisely, from Los Chacayes, Tunuyán. This terroir is renowned for its great properties for producing high-end wines. There is a daily thermal range that brings this varietal to perfect ripeness, and a soil composition that contributes mineral notes.Together, they make this Cabernet Franc a structured and truly complex wine.
Vineyards
The grapes for this cuvée are sourced from a number of growers with longstanding relationships with the Brunel family, all of which represent a variety of unique terroirs. Vineyards planted on filtered gravel beds produce concentrated grapes, while clay soil adds a rich, aromatic quality, and chalky limestone brings structure and a long finish to the wine. The 2020 harvest was conducted in mid-September to ensure mature grapes with balanced acidity.

Winemaking
The wine was aged for 12 months in French barrels. The wine was then transferred to stainless steel tanks for 10-15 days in order to allow the lees to precipitate. After stabilization, the unfiltered, final wine was bottled-aged an additional 8 months.
