Felino

2012 Mendoza Cabernet Sauvignon

The Global Wine Co. Felino Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2012 vintage is a striking red wine that beautifully represents the Mendoza region of Argentina. This full-bodied wine showcases a remarkable balance of high acidity, which refreshes the palate and enhances its overall structure. With its pronounced fruit intensity, expect to be greeted by rich notes of dark berries, plum, and hints of cherry, all beautifully intertwined with subtle oak undertones that speak to its aging process. The tannins are notably firm, providing a strong backbone that promises excellent aging potential. This wine is strikingly dry, making it an ideal pairing companion for hearty dishes, grilled meats, and full-flavored cheeses. Enjoy the complexity and depth that this exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon brings to any occasion.

Mendoza

Mendoza is the heart of Argentinian wine production. It was here where a previously little-known French grape variety called Malbec became a global superstar. With its extreme altitudes and Andean climate, Mendoza nurtures its vineyards in dramatic sun-drenched plateaus set against snow-capped peaks. At these elevations, the intense UV light ripens grapes in a unique way, working with the cold mountain air to create gloriously supple and expressive wines with bold yet brightly aromatic fruit. Mendoza's high-quality varietals from Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are also notable, as are its fine Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from sub-regions such as Maipú, Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.
