2,000 bottles. That's it. That's the whole story right there. This is single-vineyard cabernet franc from arguably Argentina's greatest ever winemaker... they call the Messi of wine - they actually do, we didn't make that up! No excess, no showing off, just a precisely crafted wine that reveals more and more the longer you sit with it. This is not a wine made in a hurry, we don't need to rush the drinking experience.

Why do we love this wine?
This is Mendoza's elite. If Mendoza classified wines as Grand Crus, these would certainly earn that title. Gran Enemigo is the flagship range of cab francs highlighting the differences between some of the greatest single vineyards in Mendoza. El Enemigo is something of a dream team in Mendoza. It's the creation of Adrianna Catena, youngest daughter of Nicolas Catena (founder of Catena Zapata) and Alejandro Vigil, the chief winemaker of Catena Zapata. The pedigree doesn't get much better than that. Their focus on cabernet franc has been at the forefront of the modern Mendoza wine movement, as has their single site approach that is modelled after the practices of Burgundy and other Old World regions.
