Viñalba ‘Cuvée Diane’ 2019/20, Mendoza

Product Description

Hervé J Fabre was the first winemaker in Argentina to create single-variety Malbec wines. That’s not to say he doesn’t still champion other grape varieties that thrive in Mendoza’s high-altitude vineyards. His winemaking philosophy is very much one of minimal intervention, aiming to create powerful-yet-elegant, fruit-forward wines. His innovation & skill has won him countless medals & 20 major international trophies. Cuvée Diane is named after Hervé’s wife. It’s complex, elegant & embodies the very best of Viñalba. It has delicate & fresh aromas of liquorice, vanilla & a touch of mint. Cabernet Franc shows itself with notes of ripe dark cherry. 18 months of French oak ageing adds roundness & vanilla spice. Venison in a berry sauce will pair beautifully with its jammy dark fruit & silky tannins.
