13.0% Alcohol./Vol.
REVIEW: A medium-bodied Cab Franc with aromas of ripe srawberry, lilac, earthy beets, sweet spice, and herbal notes. It is also nicely rustic with a subtle hay barn quality.
In terms of flavour, there’s tart plum and chocolate, with faint floral notes seeping through. It has wonderful acidity and the tannins are well integrated. The flavours linger.
Tasted November 2018
