Producer Information

Rob and Jo, two Leeds locals, first went to Argentina in 2011 and immediately fell in love with the country. Owning a vineyard wasn’t ever in their sights when the first went over but as they traveled and grew their love wine, their desire to make wine grew. They now have an acre of vineyard that lies in the Uco Valley at the base of the Andes. The name Cada Nube means ‘every cloud’.

Grapes

Cabernet Franc,

Production

The vineyard lies at an altitude of 1100m above sea level, which provides a cooling factor against the heat of the day. In Los Chacayes the maximum temperatures during the summer months easily exceed 30ºC and go down to 5ºC during the night. However, with low cloudiness and extremely strong evaporation, rainfall reaches an annual average of 320mm. The soils are made up of around 40-50% rocks with remaining volume composed of coarse particles of sand and silt. The 2022 growing season produced near perfect growing conditions, delivering healthy grapes with a good balance of fruit ripeness and acidity.

100% Cabernet Franc. Grapes are hand harvested and vinified separately. 21 day fermentation in stainless steel with half of the wine being aged in 3rd use neutral French oak for 7 months.

Tasting Notes

Dark fruits aromas of black cherry, plum and blackberry. Notes of menthol, herbaceous dried rosemary & lavender. Taste continues the fruit theme with fine, smooth and well integrated tannins.

It’ll match a range of foods but will favour tender lamb, rustic, herbaceous dishes or leafy veg dishes.
