Uco Deus · Cabernet Franc Rosé · Paraje Altamira, Mendoza, Argentina · 2023

The Moment

This is the bottle you open when you want rosé with intention — precise, mineral, and quietly expressive. It’s a wine for warm afternoons that turn thoughtful, where freshness matters more than flash.

What It Feels Like

The nose is fresh and aromatic, opening with raspberry and strawberry layered with Cabernet Franc’s signature herbal lift. Sweet herbs and a subtle “rosy spice” weave through the fruit, giving the aromatics clarity rather than sweetness.

On the palate, the wine is light on its feet and beautifully composed. Bright red fruit is carried by refreshing acidity and a distinctly mineral core — a reflection of Altamira’s calcareous soils. The texture is silky and fine, offering shape and precision without weight.

The finish is clean, dry, and quietly persistent, leaving behind freshness, mineral tension, and subtle herbal nuance.

Why We Love It

This Cabernet Franc Rosé is a beautiful outlier — high-elevation, low-intervention, and built around purity rather than power. Fermented with native yeasts and aged in concrete eggs and amphora, the 2023 vintage delivers precision, mineral freshness, and texture without oak influence. A rosé that rewards attention while remaining effortlessly drinkable.
