Cabernet Franc at altitude in the Uco Valley has \u003cstrong\u003eattracted considerable critical attention\u003c\/strong\u003e over the past decade as producers have recognised the variety’s particular affinity for the cool, mineral terroir of the highest elevation Valle de Uco parcels, producing wines of unusual aromatic freshness, floral complexity and fine-grained tannin structure that provide a natural counterpoint to the more typically structured expressions of the variety from Bordeaux and Loire. The 2020 growing season, one of the more consistent and balanced recent years in the Uco Valley, should have produced Cabernet Franc of excellent natural ripeness and aromatic expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCabernet Franc at high altitude expresses its characteristic aromatics of violet, dried herbs, red fruit and iron mineral with particular clarity and precision in the coolest and most precisely farmed vineyard positions, and the Ambrosia de Tupungato estate’s minimal-intervention philosophy of natural fermentation and limited cellar addition allows the variety’s natural aromatic character to speak with the maximum transparency that this approach consistently achieves. The Viña Única designation confirms that the wine is produced from a single specific parcel within the estate’s Tupungato holdings, providing the kind of parcel-specific terroir documentation that the most serious fine wine producers aspire to regardless of country or appellation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe presence of both the 2020 Cabernet Franc and the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon from Ambrosia de Tupungato in this catalogue allows collectors and enthusiasts who seek genuinely individual Argentine fine wine from outside the most commercially prominent estates to compare the estate’s specific parcel across two varieties and two consecutive vintages, providing a comprehensive introduction to a small producer of genuine ambition and distinctive terroir identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRuby with a fresh and aromatic nose of violet, red cherry, dried herbs, graphite mineral, iron and the distinctive cool-climate mineral character of Tupungato Cabernet Franc on volcanic and calcareous soils.
