Located in the Chacayes region and surrounded by the suggestive landscapes typical of the Mendoza wine region, the Alpasion winery was founded by a group of friends with a great passion for wine. Today the company, which extends over 85 hectares of organically cultivated vineyards, produces high-quality wines based on Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Syrah. The estate is also a wine tourism destination, with a lodge and restaurant.

The Cabernet Franc grapes for this wine are selected and harvested manually from 6-year-old vines located 1,200 meters above sea level in the Los Chacayes, Tunuyan area. After fermentation with indigenous yeasts and a period of maceration, the wine is then aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels.

The wine has a brilliant ruby-red color with a garnet edge. The aromatic profile is intense and complex, with notes of ripe red fruit, spices, coffee, and licorice. On the palate, it is dry and medium-bodied. The acidity is well balanced, and the tannins moderate. It is an expressive wine that shows the typicality of the grape variety and is distinguished by a good finish with toasted notes. Perfect with game birds and roast pork.
