Origin

Altamira Cabernet Franc Reserva is produced in Chile, a country renowned for its high-quality wine production, particularly in the Central Valley region where the climate and soil conditions favor the cultivation of Cabernet Franc grapes.

Variety

The wine is made exclusively from the Cabernet Franc grape variety, known for its aromatic complexity and medium-bodied structure.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure optimal ripeness and quality. The winemaking process includes careful fermentation at controlled temperatures to preserve the varietal aromas. The wine is aged in oak barrels for a period consistent with Reserva classification, enhancing its complexity and structure.
