Argento Cabernet
Two Argento reds, poured plain and priced fair in Commack.
The story behind Argento
Cabernet Franc is the quieter parent of Cabernet Sauvignon, a red that ripens a little earlier and drinks with more lift: red plum, raspberry, a green herbal edge, fine tannin. In Argentina it is often made in a fresher, food friendly style rather than a heavy one. Malbec Reserva is the country's signature red, darker and rounder, with plum and violet and a soft finish.
We keep Argento in the Cabernet section here in Commack. It is a small allocation, one or two bottles at a time, so call ahead if you want a specific one held.
