2011 Bodega Renacer Punto Final Gran Cabernet Franc Mendoza Argentina

With a limited production of only 2,000 bottles, Renacer's Punto Final Gran Cabernet Franc is a rarity by its own nature.  Add to that the fact that it is composed of 100% Cabernet Franc in a region that is all but devoted to Malbec production and you have a true gem.  A seemless balance between ripeness and freshness; fruit and wood, Renacer Punto Final Gran Cabernet Franc provides another way to appreciate the spectacular terroir of Mendoza, Argentina.

Tasting Notes

Punto Final Gran Cabernet Franc is deep ruby in color.  On the nose, the wine displays inviting aromas of cassis, raspberry, and blackcurrant.  On the palate, ripe and juicy red fruit combines with peppery spice and subtle oak tones over a hardy structure of soft, velvety tannins.

Food Pairing

Match Punto Final Gran Cabernet Franc with a variety of roasted or barbequed meats.  The wine is an ideal partner for game or wintry stews.  Rustic pastas and ripe cheeses also make an ideal pairing.
