Reviews

James Suckling 91

A flavorful cabernet franc with aromas of blueberries, violets, bitter chocolate, oregano and bay leaves. It's medium- to full-bodied, with fine-grained tannins and delicious herb notes. Drink or hold.

Technical Details

Estate

Bodega Sur de los Andes was created by Guillermo Banfi, a young Argentine professional who entered the wine industry in 2002. Today, the Banfi Family owns a 25 ha vineyard in Agrelo, Luján de Cuyo planted mainly with Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Also, the winery has long-term contracts with their growers and the grapes are as close to state grown as possible, an arrangement very similar to those made by the traditional vineyards in Rioja, Spain.

Tasting notes

This high elevation Cabernet Franc from Mendoza packs on the flavors of wild blackberry jam, cherries and ripe strawberries. Aged in French oak, this rich red is loaded with jammy cassis and blueberry flavors, woven together with layers of floral and cedar notes. Amazing for the price!
