Saurus Barrel Fermented Cabernet Franc is an elegant and intense Argentine red wine crafted from 100% Cabernet Franc grown in the cool climate of Patagonia.
Vinification: Whole-berry cold maceration in stainless steel tanks with enzymes and dry ice for 4 days. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in new oak barrels inside climate-controlled cellars, followed by spontaneous malolactic fermentation in the same barrels.
Aging: 100% of the wine is aged for 8 months in new French oak (60%) and American oak (40%) barrels with custom toasted wood.
Tasting Notes: Vibrant aromas of ripe red fruits (plum and sour cherry), combined with spicy notes, leather, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it exhibits a sophisticated structure, full body, and a memorable, long-lasting finish.
Food Pairing: Asado de Tira (short ribs), chops, dark chocolate.
