Faustino Art Collection Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon

Faustino Art Collection emerges from the personality of Faustino’s Brand: it’s internationality, diversity and the links of Familia Martínez Zabala with the arts. The iconic Faustino label, painted in 1641 by Rembrandt, is reimagined by celebrated modern artist Willy Ramos, offering a new dimension to the most iconic brand of Rioja. 

Wine Production

Pre-fermentation maceration at 8ºC for 96 hours. Afterwards, it is fermented for 11 days at a controlled temperature of 26ºC in stainless steel tanks.

Tasting Notes

Plum, blackcurrant, spice and vanilla aromas. A full-bodied wine with rich dark fruit flavors and hints of vanilla and roasted coffee. Long finish.

Food Pairing

Pairs with juicy burgers, kebabs, pizza and pastas.
