Details
Vibrant and elegant, this New World Cabernet Franc shows a stunning mix of blackcurrants, black cherries, and juicy red cherries, lifted by aromatic hints of red bell pepper and tomato leaf. Floral violets and a touch of graphite add complexity, while subtle notes of green peppercorn and forest floor give the wine a savoury edge. It’s refreshing, flavourful, and beautifully balanced, finishing long and pure.
We’re very excited to introduce our GPD collaboration with Bodega Atamisque, bringing you the Picaflor range - a joyful, fruit-forward collection that showcases just how versatile and delicious Uco Valley wines can be. This is a full line-up of white, rosé and red, each wine made to be approachable, vibrant and seriously drinkable, while still staying true to its high-altitude roots. Picaflor is all about pure expression: fresh flavours, bright acidity and varietal character front and centre - wines that feel just as good on a weeknight as they do poured around a table with friends. Bodega Atamisque sits high in San José, Tupungato, at 1,300 metres above sea level, surrounded by wild forest and dramatic Andean landscapes. Owned by French couple John du Monceau and Chantal, whose family roots trace back to Burgundy, the estate blends French elegance with Argentine sunshine. Quality always comes first here - Atamisque only uses fruit from its own estate vineyards and favours finesse over power. That philosophy shines through in Picaflor: expressive, balanced wines with real purity and energy, made in a gravity-fed winery designed to let the fruit do the talking. We’re super proud to partner with a producer that shares our love of great flavour, thoughtful farming and wines that are simply a pleasure to drink.

Pairing guide
This lively Cab Franc pairs brilliantly with dishes that highlight both its fruit and savoury nuances. Think grilled ratatouille with fresh herbs, where the tomato and bell pepper notes in the wine echo the dish, or roasted red pepper and goat cheese tartlets for a sophisticated appetizer. Vegan options shine too: smoky lentil and mushroom stew brings out the forest floor character, while a beet, walnut, and rocket salad with a balsamic glaze accentuates the wine’s juicy red fruit. For a heartier meal, grilled aubergine and courgette with a thyme and garlic dressing keeps the wine fresh and lifted, making every sip sing.

Wine region

Uco Valley, Argentina
The Uco Valley is arguably home to some of Argentina's finest wine producers. This sub-region is part of the wider region of Mendoza, the premier wine-growing region in the country. Uco is slightly more unique that the rest of the region due to its higher-altitude vineyards. This often leads to wine styles with a little more balance and restraint, and they often come in with more florality than their lower-altitude counterparts. The region has seen significant investment over the years, and some of the world's household wine names now own vineyards in these parts.
