1979 Weinert Cabernet Sauvignon Estrella: A Timeless Jewel for Discerning Collectors
The 1979 Weinert Cabernet Sauvignon Estrella stands as a milestone in Argentina’s fine wine heritage. This vintage helped elevate Cabernet Sauvignon to the spotlight during a time when Malbec and Bonarda still dominated the landscape. Aged for over nine years in massive 5,800-liter French oak foudres and bottled in 1988, this wine is a rare example of patient, artisanal winemaking that rewards those who appreciate complexity, structure, and history in every glass.
This refined Cabernet requires decanting to awaken its full depth. Once opened, it reveals a sophisticated bouquet of dried cassis, black cherry, cedar, leather, and subtle hints of graphite and earthy spices. On the palate, it shows remarkable balance, offering a velvety texture and well-evolved tannins, intertwined with flavors of dark chocolate, cigar box, dried fig, and a lingering mineral finish. Time has added elegance and layered nuance, without compromising its power.
This wine is far more than a beverage — it’s a journey through time. Ideal for seasoned collectors or those curating a serious wine cellar, it’s equally rewarding now or after further aging. Best enjoyed alongside slow-cooked short ribs, rosemary-crusted rack of lamb, dry-aged ribeye, or a beef Wellington, the 1979 Weinert Cabernet Sauvignon Estrella is a masterclass in old-world craftsmanship with a distinctive Argentine soul
