June Wine Club 2024

Published: June 25, 2024
Featuring Argentina!  

Martino Viña Violeta Cabernet Franc 
Luján de Cuyo and Maipú
Grapes from the two different vineyards are fermented separately and once both the alcoholic fermentation and the malolactic fermentation have finished, the final cut is made and then aged in oak barrels for 12 months! Deep red with crimson highlights, showing aromas and flavors of blackberry, spices and red pepper. Mouthfeel is long and gentle, providing notes of chocolate and vanilla. Smooth and balanced!
Pair with roast meats, cheese, and herby stews. 
*90 Points, James Suckling  

Carlos Basso "Dos Fincas" Blend
Luján de Cuyo
Cabernet Sauvignon 60% Malbec 40%
“Two Farms” Fermented and aged in stave studded concrete tanks for 9 months. Unfined and unfiltered. Originally from Genoa, Italy, the Basso Family has been producing wine since 1922, and in Argentina since 1935. This wine was born of two distinct vineyards in Uco. Rich and abundant with floral aromas, backed by dark powerful fruit, including plum and strawberry flavors. 
A solid wine with a big finish!  

Martino Viña Violeta Old Vine Bonarda
Luján de Cuyo
Single Vineyard  Aged 12 months in oak barrels! Deep ruby red tones with violet highlights. Juicy with black forest fruits, allspice and notes of dark chocolate.  On the palate it has an elegant entry, fresh and fruity with good volume, round tannins and unique finish!  A must-have!
Pair with pasta, grilled veggies, and empanadas. 
*92 Points, James Suckling  

La Yunta Torrontes
Famatina Valley, La Rioja 
Notably aromatic with green melon and white peach! It has a balanced citrus flavor with a touch of French oak, to provide a crisp, yet lingering finish.  Serve well chilled.
Wonderful as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to seafood or poultry!  

Domaine Bousquet Rose  
Mendoza
Certified Organic. Vegan Friendly. Gluten Free!  An elegant pale salmon color, showing aromas of red fruits, with hints of fresh cherries and orange peel!  Lively with fresh acidity and a fruity finish! 
Pairs well with seafood, fish, and Asian cuisine.
