Garces Silva Boya Cabernet Franc

With a long lasting tradition which spans many generations, the Garcés Silva family has developed a deep bond with the land, imprinting a unique quality-seal to each of its different agricultural activities.

Boya – “buoy” in English – is a demarcation or point of reference in the ocean, and in this case a point in the Leyda Valley, where all of the variables come together to produce the finest cold climate wines, allowing the grapes to have a slow ripeness and maximize the fruit potential.

Boya Cabernet Franc is a young and honest wine that is easy to recognize for its natural freshness. The coastal soils that face the Pacific Ocean and a New World enological approach result in highly fruity notes and tremendous varietal typicity.
