Buena Vida, Pie Franco Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

Buena Vida is a boutique winery dedicated to crafting expressive, terroir-driven wines from high-altitude vineyards in Chile. Rooted in minimal intervention winemaking, the estate focuses on single-vineyard bottlings that showcase purity and sense of place. Their Pie Franco series highlights ungrafted vines, capturing the raw character of their unique growing conditions. Vibrant and structured, this ungrafted Cabernet Sauvignon delivers cassis, black cherry, and graphite on the nose, with hints of cedar and wild herbs. The palate is fresh yet powerful, balancing fine-grained tannins with juicy acidity. A long, mineral-driven finish lingers with dark fruit and subtle spice. An awesome BBQ wine.
