COMMENTARY: Ounce for ounce and pound for pound, the Argentine Cabernet Sauvignons under $20 are some of best red wine values in the world. TASTING NOTES: The suave and sophisticated 2015 El Esteco Don David Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve shows excellent black fruit and savory spices it is aromas and on the palate. The wine's richness and firm balance make it an excellent wine to enjoy with grilled beef. (Tasted: February 16, 2018, San Francisco, CA)

With over 1500 acres of vineyards, El Esteco is the most important winery in the CalchaquÍ Valley of Argentina. An inhospitable but magical place, at dizzying heights of 1700 meters (5600 feet), that breathes life into extraordinary wines. It is a winery that challenges preconceptions, believing in the opportunity to create wines that stand out from the norm.
It is a winery that seeks to surprise, to create distinct wines that highlight the unique characteristics of the CalchaquÍ Valley terroirs. The unique climate of this place manifests itself in the elegant profile of El Esteco’s wines, with colors, aromas and flavors accentuated by the sun and the altitude. These are wines with an indelible sense of place, wines which complement food rather than overpower, wines which are true to their origin.
