Washington Cabernet Sauvignon vs. Argentina

The early months of the year bring chilly weather to most of the Northern hemisphere.  This typically brings out the cyclocross racers who love racing in the bad weather.  Conversely, the pro road racers scramble for warmer climates, drawn to locations such as Australia and Argentina.

This Luchavino matchup follows the pros to Argentina where they competed in La Vuelta de San Juan, a week long stage race that takes place at the end of January.  The majority of the 7 stages take place around the city of San Juan which is located in the wine region of the same name and just to the North of the Mendoza region.
