CARONNE ST. GEMME HAUT MEDOC
Hailing from a majestic estate that dates back to the 1600s, this wine is rich in history and rich in flavor. A ripe and firm expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine does extremely well with time and keeps exceptionally. A bright nose of full red fruit and smoky pepper dance onto the palate and then provide a satisfying and poetic finish.

SPINSANTI MALBEC RESERVA Although it has a pedigree as one of the main blending grapes in French Bordeaux, Malbec has soared in popularity as Argentina’s flagship varietal.
