Estate grown wines from the Vista Flores region of Uco Valley, Argentina.
We make all of our wine from our two acres , one acre planted to Malbec and one to Cabernet Franc. Our vines are located at 3600+ feet elevation on the eastern edge of the Andes, in the Vista Flores region of Uco Valley. We handcraft small allotments of 95-100% Malbec and Cabernet Franc, some barrel fermented for greater complexity and longevity, and we also make a unique co-fermented blend of roughly equal amounts of each varietal. We think these wines are exceptional, and hope that you will enjoy them.

Rare Uco Valley
Cabernet Franc
This month we want to acquaint, or re-acquaint, you with our range of Cabernet Franc options, all at very special prices. Malbec is the varietal that evokes Argentinean wine; but we think high altitude Uco Valley Cab Franc makes the best wine of all. Not as full-bodied as Malbec, but more elegant, refined and complex on the nose and palate.
Cab Franc is still a relatively rare bird in Argentina, and total vineyard acreage is low. Our standard bearer Cab Franc often contains 5% Malbec, and in some vintages, we make a 100% Barrel Fermented version and a Special Edition version that includes a smidgeon of Malbec and 33% barrel-fermented Cab Franc.
To entice you, we offer a three-bottle sampler of one 2019 Barrel Fermented (92 Rating), one 2020 Special Edition and one 2019 standard bottling for $122, a savings of $40. Or get an even better deal with a six-bottle sampler of two bottles of 2019 Barrel Fermented, two bottles of 2020 Special Edition and two bottles of 2019 Standard for $240 (a savings of $84), AND no charge for ground shipping.
We think these wines are fabulous, and hope you will try them. And remember, the 10% case discount will still be added automatically to any order of 12 bottles or more.
We are excited to announce that a Dos Abogados wine was highly rated in a recent tasting by renowned expert James Suckling. This was Dos Abogados’ first attempt to get a wine rating and we were limited to just one wine submission and we chose our just released 2019 Cabernet Franc barrel fermented.
