Finca Las Moras Black Label Cabernet Cabernet is a sophisticated Argentine red that celebrates the union of two noble varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Grown in the high-altitude, desert-like terroir of the Pedernal Valley in San Juan, situated at approximately 1,350 meters above sea level, the vines are exposed to intense sunlight and dramatic day-night temperature swings. This unique climate yields grapes with thick skins, concentrated flavors, and excellent natural acidity. The wine is traditionally aged in French and American oak barrels, which imparts elegant structure, round tannins, and complex layers of blackcurrant, graphite, sweet spices, and a touch of eucalyptus. It stands as a testament to San Juan's capability to produce premium, structured reds beyond the traditional Malbec.
