Saint Felicien Cabernet Franc: The Distinction of Argentine Terroir
Discover Saint Felicien Cabernet Franc, a sophisticated wine that embodies the essence of Mendoza's finest terroirs in Argentina. Its deep ruby-red hue is just the beginning of an unforgettable sensory experience.
On the nose, it enchants with a bouquet of ripe red fruits like cassis and redcurrant, subtly interwoven with spicy notes of black pepper and clove. On the palate, it unfolds extraordinary complexity: soft, velvety tannins paired with impeccable structure and a persistent, seductive finish.
Crafted under the expert guidance of Alejandro Vigil, this Cabernet Franc spent 16 months in new French oak barrels, adding elegance and depth to every sip. Grown in the high-altitude region of Agrelo, at 930 meters above sea level, it reflects the unique character of the Argentine Andes.
The Perfect Pairings for complementing classic cuts of meat such as filet mignon with a red wine reduction or more creative dishes like herb-crusted rack of lamb. Its complexity also elevates rich seafood dishes like maple-glazed smoked salmon and pheasant with wild mushroom sauce. For vegetarian options, it pairs beautifully with black truffle risotto or grilled eggplant with halloumi cheese.
Perfect for those looking to explore the noble and versatile nature of this varietal, Saint Felicien Cabernet Franc transforms any occasion into an unforgettable moment.
