UCO VALLEY - MENDOZA - ARGENTINA
Refucilo comes from the heart of Mendoza, Argentina: The Uco Valley region. The Andes mountain range, the climate, the soil, and the artful hands of Casa de Uco created a unique Cabernet Sauvignon, a genuine expression of this terroir.
A spicy Cabernet Sauvignon showing white pepper, five spice powder, currant and wet earth. Medium-bodied with some chewing tannins and a tight, medium length finish.
