D90

Unearth the characterful elegance of Uruguay with this Reserva-level Cabernet Franc from Bodega Garzón, nestled in the coastal hills of Maldonado. Crafted with precision and care, every element—from terroir to aging—is designed to showcase the pure, expressive personality of this noble varietal.

Tasting Profile

  • Appearance: Deep purple hue with bright violet reflections, hinting at rich intensity.

  • Aromas: Mineral-driven and layered, featuring ripe green pepper, forest fruits, spices, and a subtle whisper of dark chocolate and smoky barrel nuances.

  • Palate: Silky and balanced, offering flavors of prunes and ripe blackberries, lifted by refreshing touches of eucalyptus and mint, giving this wine complexity with finesse.

Pairing Suggestions

Ideal alongside flavor-forward dishes: grilled or roasted meats, herb-infused pork ribs, wild mushroom ragù over pasta, or aged cheeses. Mediterranean-inspired pairings bring out the wine’s complex aromas and silky structure.
