Benegas Finca Libertad, 2005 From High Mendoza River a rolling Cab based blend




Benegas Finca Libertad, By Bodegas Benegas, USD 25

A blend a Cabernet Sauvignon with some Franc and Merlot from High Mendoza River. Good blend with dominant Cab Sau descriptors like red and green bell peppers, sweet and ripe.Nice dark fruits no very sour but likeable. Soft vanilla and smoke from oak. Nice balance. Not very attractivemay be because not having malbec in it. A wine to cellar 5-8 years with improving complexity. I´d say a 89 points winewith a very good value component.
