Carlos Gardel · Origen
Carlos Gardel Origen Cabernet Sauvignon
To the eye, it exhibits a deep and intense ruby red color. The nose is complex and spicy: typical notes of black pepper and red bell pepper appear, combined with ripe black fruits such as cassis and blackberries. In the mouth, it presents firm and marked tannins, yet well-integrated, with a structured body and a long finish.

Vineyard & winemaking
Created in vineyards in Luján de Cuyo at 950 meters above sea level, this Cabernet Sauvignon expresses the strong character and typicity of the variety. Its production seeks balance: it maintains the freshness of the fruit while adding a brief aging period to tame its natural tannins. It is a wine with presence, structure, and distinction, evoking the imposing figure and classic elegance of Carlos Gardel.

Food pairing
Due to its tannic structure, this wine calls for dishes with intense flavor and fat content. It is the ideal companion for grilled red meats (especially bone-in cuts like 'tira de asado'), lentil stews or 'locro', and pastas with strong sauces like bolognese. It also pairs excellently with hard and spicy cheeses.
