Palo Santo Cabernet Franc 2024 75cl

Tasting Note

A nose of goji berry, red pencil shavings and tomato skin. On the palate its juicy structured and bright, with texture and gently grippy length of its Los Chacayes (high Uco Valley) provenance.

Producer

Not far from the mountain town of Tupungato, the Urquia family have invested in 300 hectares of desert soils shadowed by the immensity of the Argentine Andes. The winery’s name, Urqo, elegantly merges the family’s surname and the Uco Valley. Urqo’s vineyards spread across Los Chacayes and Tupungato districts and benefit from this raw exposure. The high UV and the mean, sandy soils of the desert environment are ideal for producing characterful fruit. The bodega itself is minimalist, a clean white structure designed, in simple terms, to best convey the essence of these grapes.
