Cantina di Luce is PAMEC’s wine collaboration with Gaucho Grill Temecula. Three Cantina di Luce wines join PAMEC Cabernet Franc on the restaurant’s opening wine lineup, bringing a local winery connection to the Old Town table.
Three collaboration wines, plus PAMEC Cabernet Franc
PAMEC Cabernet Franc
Elegant, savory, and red-fruited, with fresh acidity and fine tannins. A pairing suggestion for steak with chimichurri, mushrooms, or herb-driven dishes.
Cantina di Luce Barbera
Bright cherry and plum, lively acidity, and a refreshing finish. A pairing suggestion for empanadas, provoleta, or grilled vegetables.
Cantina di Luce Sangiovese
Red cherry, herbs, and a dry, savory finish. A pairing suggestion for grilled meats, tomato-based dishes, and chimichurri.
Cantina di Luce Red Blend
Malbec, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon come together in a darker-fruited, fuller-bodied red. A pairing suggestion for ribeye, short rib, or rich grilled dishes.
The story behind the table
Our collaboration connects PAMEC’s winemaking with Gaucho Grill’s Argentine dining experience. The four wines offer different ways to pair a meal: the freshness of Barbera, the savory character of Sangiovese, the fuller red blend, and the elegant structure of Cabernet Franc.
Cantina di Luce is a three-wine project, not a single varietal. The red blend combines Malbec, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon; PAMEC Cabernet Franc is a separate wine in the lineup.
