Description

Score: 94 pts James Suckling

Tutu Cabernet Franc Calcareous Mix 2023 is a refined, deep expression of Valle de Uco Cabernet Franc, crafted under a minimal-intervention philosophy that puts sense of place above anything else. The project is built around gravity vinification, low extraction, native yeasts, and aging entirely in concrete eggs, aiming for wines that are authentic, transparent, and true to their origin.

This Cabernet Franc comes from carefully selected parcels in Gualtallary and Paraje Altamira, grown on soils dominated by 70% stones coated with calcium carbonate and a layer of caliche at 30 cm depth—conditions that deliver tension, energy, and a pronounced mineral signature. A small touch of Malbec adds nuance and balance without taking away from the varietal character.

"Austere on the nose and on the entry, it opens up with power on the finish. Juicy, vertical, and persistent, with a mouthfeel that returns and repeats itself, inviting you to discover new layers. A different, very fine Cabernet Franc—full of depth and elegance—that gains complexity over time."

A precise, contemplative wine that reflects the spirit of TUTU: wines of peace—delicate, honest, and unadorned—where every sip speaks clearly of the place it comes from.
