Echeverria No Es Pituko Cabernet Franc 750ML
Echeverría’s No Es Pituko (“It’s Not Fancy”) line is all about raw, unadulterated expression, embracing natural winemaking with minimal intervention. This Chilean Cabernet Franc is fermented with native yeasts, bottled unfiltered, and left untouched to let the fruit shine. The 2023 vintage is especially vibrant, reflecting both the region’s sunny days and cooling Pacific breezes, which help maintain freshness and lift.Bursting with juicy raspberry, blackcurrant, and crushed violets, the wine also shows classic Cabernet Franc notes of fresh herbs and a hint of peppery spice. The texture is smooth yet lively, with bright acidity keeping it fresh and drinkable. Compared to a more structured Loire example, this leans into pure fruit and easygoing charm while still holding onto varietal character.
Perfect with anything off the grill—think charred vegetables, smoky sausages, or even a juicy burger. Chill it slightly for an extra refreshing take, or enjoy as an energetic, no-fuss red that speaks for itself.
