Fincas Notables, Cabernet Sauvignon 2009. Hard to make it in super high Cafayate Valley

Fincas Notables, Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, By Bodega El Esteco, USD 30



A CS from a single vineyard named Cuartel 9 `La Urquiza´ in Cafayate Valley, Salta (Nothwest Argentina). A regular Cab with nice black berries and a much bigger peppery note. The concentrated fruit lessen the herbal dominance a little bit. Agreable by the palate with a toach of toast and chocolate. I wound´t go far from 85 points because of the unbalance and wound´t pay 30 bucks twice either. Cafayate Valley altitude makes it realy hard for CB grapes to fully ripe.
