Pura Fe Cabernet Sauvignon

Overview

Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most important grapes in Chile, especially in the Maipo Valley. The grape has adapted very well to the climate and historically brings great prestige to the wines created from it. 100% Cabernet, this approachable red was cultivated using Biodynamic practices to express its unique character and excellent balance. A lively palate shows ripe berries, pepper notes, and velvety tannins. Drink now and often!
