A very attractive nose with aromas of blackberries, blueberries, black currants, camp fire smoke, violets, savoury herbs and vanilla notes. On the mouthfeel, full bodied, fantastic mid palate with smooth tannins and balanced acidity. The finish is medium-long, clean with excellent depth of flavours.

My first time with this Cabernet Franc and what a fantastic wine experience it was. A wine with great aromatics, complex flavours and terrific oak integration. A Cabernet Franc tailor made for Cabernet Sauvignon lovers. In a sea of expensive California wines, this one represents a great value. Need I say, outstanding wine and strongly recommended. Cheers my wine friends 🍷
