Finca las Divas Cabernet Franc Reserve Gualtallary
Finca Las Divas
Argentina - Mendoza    - Gualtallary

Named in honor of different divas because of the detailed attention to each varietal and plot, consequence of the terroir, origin of the Andes slopes.

Deep violet red in color.  Its aromas are intense and concentrated, with hints of black and red fruits with smoky touches obtained during its oak aging.  In the mouth it is persistent, full of juicy yet firm tannins and balanced acidity.  It is frank and expressive, modern and of great personality.

tim atkin logo 250"It’s worth buying anything with Cabernet Franc on the label from Finca Las Divas, such is the grape’s connection with the terroir here. Matured in foudres and older barrels, this is engagingly scented and refreshing, showing leafy, cut-grass aromas, bramble, plum and black cherry fruit flavours, scented mocha oak and filigree tannins. 2026-32."
