Flechas De Los Andes Cabernet/Syrah 2011

Flechas De Los Andes Cabernet/Syrah comes from a property in Argentina overseen by the famous Rothschild winemaking family of Bordeaux, applying their uncompromising quality standards to Argentina's exciting vineyards. Fifteen years ago, blending Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah was rarely--if ever--done. When you taste this wine, which deserves to be part of any discussion about the best in Argentina, you will be glad today's winemakers experiment fearlessly. The expressive aromas of plum, dark berries and toasted spices will open your eyes, while the rich black cherry, cigar box and vanilla flavors will delight your palate. Supple tannins and a full-bodied texture elevate the experience to some thing very special. The ultimate match for Gaucho-style Argentine grilled steak with chimichurri sauce, it is also lovely with roast duck or lasagna.
