Process & Profile

UNO Cabernet Sauvignon is a meticulously crafted red wine from the prestigious Antigal Winery in Mendoza, Argentina. The grapes are hand-harvested from the high-altitude vineyards of Uco Valley, a region renowned for its ideal viticultural conditions. The vineyards, situated at 1,100 meters above sea level, benefit from significant thermal amplitude between warm days and cool nights, fostering exceptional aromatic complexity and concentration. The winemaking process begins with double-hand sorting to ensure the highest quality grapes, followed by fermentation and aging for 8-10 months in a combination of French and American oak barrels. This gentle approach preserves the fruit's authentic character while enhancing its natural balance and structure.
