Garzón Cabernet Franc Reserva 2023

Deep ruby in color with a lifted, aromatic nose of red currant, dried herbs, and black pepper. Hints of graphite and violet lend elegance and complexity. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied with structured tannins, showing flavors of cherry, savory spice, and subtle smoke. The finish is dry, earthy, and persistent, with a mineral backbone typical of Garzón’s coastal terroir.
