Saturday night I did a private tasting that compared old world and new world wines. There were five flights and the penultimate flight was Cab Franc. The matchup was between an Italian CF and the 2011 El Enemigo from Mendoza Argentina.
This particular CF is made by Adrianna Catena. Cabernet Franc and an affinity for it rinds deep within the Catena family as they are both fans of Cheval Blanc.
I liked El Enemigo for its red berry fruit, very dry dried fruit finish and its hint of blueberries at the end.
The price is around $25.00
