Description
Colour: Light garnet. Nose: Fragrant layers of violet and rose petal laden black cherry aromatics make a lingering impression on the nose. A real signature expression of terroir with fresh tobacco leaf and subtle graphite lift. Palate: Crisp red fruit and crushed black cherry show lovely purity and concentration with a hint of rose water and a touch of fresh tobacco leaf. Delicate texture on the palate with a dense, well balanced and fine tannin structure. The finish is fresh and perfumed, yet savoury, with a touch of graphite. Expressive, mineral and precise - a very stylish Cabernet Franc.
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.
