BenMarco Cabernet Franc 2023 750ml

BenMarco Cabernet Franc 2023 is a refined Argentine red wine produced from 100% Cabernet Franc grown in the high-altitude vineyards of Paraje Altamira in Mendoza's Valle de Uco.

The combination of elevation, cool nights and calcareous soils helps preserve freshness and acidity while developing concentrated varietal character. BenMarco's minimal-intervention approach focuses on expressing the natural identity of the vineyard rather than masking it with heavy winemaking influence.

Eleven months in second-use French oak add subtle structure and complexity while allowing the wine's herbal, spicy, earthy and fruit-driven character to remain prominent.
