Drinking Window: 2018 - 2023
A great-value wine that demonstrates the increasing success Argentina is having with varietal Cabernet Franc. Lorca's vineyards are in Vista Flores at 1,050m, ensuring great ripeness and perfume in the inky, boysenberry and violet fruit which is left to shine, as only 30% of the wine was aged in oak, for just six months.
