Vive Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
Trade Tools
Argentina / Mendoza
Alta Vista’s Vive Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits the true character of its grape variety. Fresh and intense, this wine’s aromas and flavors provide an excellent introduction to the fresh, fruit forward characteristics and overall quality of wines from Argentina.
Harvest Note
The 2024 vintage in Argentina was shaped by the powerful El Niño phenomenon, bringing warmth and unpredictability across the country's wine regions. While the year was marked by high temperatures and multiple heatwaves, the resulting wines defy expectations, displaying characteristics more akin to a cool vintage.
Tasting Note
Ripe red fruit and juicy cherry flavors give way to a classic Cabernet savory character with a hint of bell pepper. Juicy and mouth-filling with a silky finish.
