Bodega Garzón Reserve, Cabernet Franc from Maldonado, Uruguay, is a captivating red wine (rouge) that embodies a still, dry style. Crafted from 100% Cabernet Franc grapes, this wine undergoes fermentation in cement tanks and is aged on its lees in untoasted French oak casks, preserving its pure varietal character. It reveals an aromatic profile of forest fruits, wild herbs, peppery spices, and chocolate with subtle smoky notes. The palate is layered with ripe blackberries, prunes, and fresh herbs, complemented by soft tannins that provide excellent complexity and structure. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with roasted meats and mature cheeses.
