"Maybe this isn't the most structured Mendoza Cabernet, but it's got great berry fruit, some citrus freshness and smooth tannins. Easy to enjoy now."

"Another of the stars of the Estate Selection lineup originates in the heights of Gualtallary, and is a spirited Cabernet, rich in spices, generous with herbal notes, but above all marked by layers and layers and flavors of red fruit in abundance. Here what matters is the power of the Cabernet, it’s hefty granular tannins. A red to drink now with chorizo."

Go To Chakana Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

"2016 was the second vintage of this impressive Cabernet from the upper part of the Uco Valley, deliberately made in a “European” style by Gabriel Bloise. Leafy, fresh and perfumed, it’s a charming wine that has more backbone and acidity than you think at first. 2019-26"

Go To Chakana Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

"Coming from 10-year-old Cabernet vines planted in the sandy, loamy soils of the estate vineyard in the Uco Valley, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate sports a deep purple/ruby color as well as an herbal bouquet of blackcurrants, green tobacco, menthol, and spring flowers. With medium-bodied richness, good overall balance, and ripe, polished tannins, it's a terrific, rock-solid Cabernet that delivers ample character. Drink it any time over the coming 7-8 years."
