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.

Drink Our Highly Rated Wines
Two of our Cabernet Franc have been highly rated by renowned wine expert James Sucking. Last year our 2019 Cabernet Franc Barrel Fermented received a 92 and this year our 2020 Cab Franc Special Edition received a 91.
Hurry and buy before they sell out. Or try them out first with our 3 bottle Cab Franc samplers. Both of these wines with our 2019 Super Premium Cab Franc (only available in the sampler) thrown in for no additional cost.
In addition to our Malbec and Cab Franc, Dos Abogados produces a Gran Corte, which loosely translates as a Great Cut. It is a name given to Argentine wines which consist of two or more grape varieties, none of which comprise 85% of the final wine.
What makes our Dos Abogados Gran Corte different from most blends is that it is not a “blend” in the typical sense. We co-ferment our Malbec and Cab Franc grapes in close to equal proportions to produce a wine that fully integrates the flavor profiles of both grapes in a unique expression distinct from that of either of the two varieties standing alone.
