This has an aromatic and pretty nose of plums, violets, cherries, oranges and nutmeg. It’s creamy and velvety with a full body and fine-grained, lightly chalky tannins. Pure and youthful. Drink or hold.

Sourced from Altamira and San Pablo, the 2023 Q Cabernet Franc matured in a mix of foudre and 500-liter barrique. A pitch-perfect varietal nose of dark chocolate, black plums and fresh herbs is followed by a juicy and succulent palate, seamlessly transitioning to a fragrant, layered finish with a well-defined, mineral-tinged grip. This is a high-fidelity rendering of Uco Valley and a standout in the Zuccardi Q range.
