Description
Colour: Violet red. Nose: Superb cascade of perfume from the glass showing a floral, complex and layered bouquet. Deep purple cassis, mulberry and plum on the nose to begin with, giving way to brighter red fruits with aromas of lavender and faint hints of freshly dried herbs. Palate: Seductively pure with silky tannins, elegant creaminess and a touch of exotic cedar spice. The epitome of the variety with extraordinary fruit purity and bright acidity. Tobacco leaf and detailed earthiness linger to the cranberry-infused finish.
Food Pairing
Cabernet Franc pairs well with a wide variety of foods. A great accompaniment to tomato-based stew, roasted pork belly, goats cheese and rich black bean or lentil dishes.
