Description
From the historic cellars of Bodegas López in Mendoza, Argentina, Lopez – Cabernet Sauvignon 750mL delivers the classic power and poise that have made this family-run estate an icon since 1898. In the glass the wine shows a deep garnet core with youthful ruby edges, releasing aromas of ripe blackcurrant, sun-warmed blackberry, dried tobacco leaf and a hint of crushed rosemary. Subtle French oak aging lends whispers of cedar shavings, cocoa powder and vanilla bean, framing the fruit without overwhelming its purity.
On the palate the wine is medium-full bodied, with supple tannins and a vibrant spine of Andean acidity that keeps the dark fruit flavors lifted and fresh. Layers of cassis, black cherry preserve, graphite and sweet baking spice unfold toward a long, savory finish flecked with espresso and mint. Decant for thirty minutes to let the bouquet blossom, or cellar for up to eight years for added complexity.
Versatile at the table, this Argentine Cabernet pairs beautifully with flame-kissed rib-eye, rosemary lamb chops, portobello burgers or aged cheddar. Serve at 60-65°F in your favorite wine glass to appreciate every nuance.
