About this bottle
Trumpeter Cabernet Franc is made from grapes grown in Tupungato, Mendoza, at an altitude of 1,100 metres above sea level. Mendoza is Argentina’s premier wine growing region, where the high altitude and free draining soils stress the vines. As a result, the vines yield fewer but more intensely flavoured fruit.
Following malolactic fermentation, a small cut of the wine is matured in French oak for 7 months to impart subtle oak notes; this also helps to balance the acidity and soften the tannins.
