Altocedro Ano Cero, Uco Valley, Mendoza, 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

 


Altocedro Ano Cero, Uco Valley, Mendoza, 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, $9.59-$11.99, 85 points, poured core black transitioning to a deep rosewood red with a thin bleeding meniscus and sticky glass sheeting.
Aromas of mulberry with hints of chocolate, flowers, and blueberries were pleasant.
This red wine from Argentina was full-bodied, showed good acidity, a plank of underlayment tannin, and an astringent mouthfeel with tart mostly raisin flavors nuanced with burnt caramel, iron, and red pepper.
Finished long on a spice-infused 14.4% alcohol.
Did not pair well with our burgers.
