Elgin Ridge
Elgin Ridge wines are named after the altitude of the vineyard namely 282 meters above sea level. This ensures the Atlantic breezes cool the grapes during the day creating balanced wines with good fruit fine acidity and minerality. Our certified organic farm produces excellent fruit so minimal intervention is required in the cellar.
Description
"The palate weight is creamy, textural and dense but remains fresh, vital and powerful with excellent varietal typicity. What’s perhaps most impressive about this wine is the way it holds its shape, vigour and presence in the glass over several hours… and then almost seems to tire of examination and starts to close up again." Greg Sherwood MW
Food Pairing
Cabernet Franc blends pair well with grilled steaks and chops, Portobello mushrooms, green olives, pepper, rosemary, and mint.
