Argentinian Black Label Microvinified Cabernet Franc 2020, Never Before Available in the U.S.
SAN RAFAEL and MENDOZA, ARGENTINA / ACCESSWIRE / October 22, 2024 / Algodon Fine Wines, a distinguished producer of premium Argentine wines, is proud to announce the U.S. release of its microvinified Black Label Cabernet Franc Reserve 2020. This is the first time any vintage of Algodon's Cabernet Franc has been available stateside. After aging in oak barrels for 18 months, this vintage has just been released, offering U.S. wine lovers the chance to experience this exceptional Cabernet Franc from Argentina's San Rafael region.
Mendoza, Argentina is fast becoming the new Loire Valley for Cabernet Franc, and Algodon's winemakers have harnessed this potential with meticulous care. Hand-selected grapes are macerated whole in new French oak barrels for 60 days at controlled temperatures, followed by 18 months of aging in oak. This detailed process results in a wine of remarkable depth, elegance, and aging potential.
"Our Cabernet Franc Reserve 2020 is truly a standout wine," says Mauro Nosenzo, Head Winemaker at Algodon Wine Estates. "It embodies the best of what Mendoza has to offer, with a complexity and richness that will only improve over time. We are excited to finally bring this unique vintage to our U.S. customers."
Tasting Notes: Algodon's Cabernet Franc Reserve 2020 presents an intense ruby color with matching reflections. It offers a refined aromatic profile, with ripe fruit notes of cherries, strawberries, and plums, balanced by hints of spices, vanilla, and tobacco. On the palate, it is smooth yet structured, with a rich complexity and freshness. The finish is vibrant and fruity, with mature tannins, making it an excellent candidate for extended aging in the bottle.
"With this release, we aim to showcase the versatility and excellence of Cabernet Franc from Argentina's San Rafael region," says Scott Mathis, CEO of Algodon Wine Estates. "The wine's unique structure and outstanding aging potential make it a must-try for collectors and enthusiasts alike."
