WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes for this blend are hand-harvested from select parcels in the Uco Valley. Upon arrival at the winery, they undergo strict sorting before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve fresh fruit characteristics. The Cabernet Franc and Malbec components are carefully blended and aged in French oak barrels for approximately 12 months, allowing the tannins to soften and integrating complex oak nuances before bottling.
