'Scielo' is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Rg|Mx (Rivero Gonzalez) Winery in the Parras Valley, a small wine region in the Sierra Madre Oriental mountains of central northern Mexico.

Rich and round, it leads with abundance of soft tannins, red/black fruit, and luxurious oak-derived notes (coffee, tobacco, chocolate) … but it's the surprisingly fresh acidity and unexpected eucalyptus and mint notes lingering on the finish that make this wine special. 

PS: In case it sounds familiar, Rg|Mx is the grandfather winery to Rg|NY in the Northfork of Long Island!

WINEMAKING : Aged 10 months in French oak barrels 

FARMING : Sustainable

PAIRING : Beef Barbacoa or Braised Chicken Mole
