Marcelo Pelleriti Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva

Argentine Cabernet Sauvignon will soon take over the global scene, due to its excellent price/quality ratio. Pelleriti's vineyards are located in Valle de Uco, Mendoza, at an altitude above 1,000 m, where a warm, dry climate helps the grapes achieve great results with an intense, voluptuous style, good body and structure. The geographical conditions cause the vines to mature more slowly with a refreshing natural acidity, a typical special character of the wines of this area. All Pelleriti wines are made respecting the great wine tradition: manual harvests, no fertilizers and, above all, transport of the grapes by gravity.

This elegant Cabernet features a bright melody of deep ruby red cherries, rising above a backdrop of leather hues. Strong notes of red and dark fruit, with subtle spicy and cocoa aromas on the nose. On the palate it is balanced and fresh, with soft tannins. An elegant and complex wine.

The classic pairing with Cabernet is lamb, but it goes well with almost any meat: beef, pork, venison, stuffed pastas with sauces, stews or even rabbit. Enjoy this Cab with grilled rib eye, portobello mushrooms and hearty meat dishes.

The grapes are hand-picked. 50% is aged in French oak barrels for 12 months, followed by 6 months in bottle. Serve between 14-16 °C (57-61 °F).
