Medium to full body, high acidity and medium tannins. Colour is deep, dark purple with a reddish tinge. Nose is strong, dark ripe fruits - plum, blackberry, black cherry and herbaceous with a peppery note and tobacco. One can feel the oakiness in the finish which is long and well rounded. Has aged well but still needs to breathe for 20-30 mins after opening. Looking forward to my next helping !!!

My first Cab Franc. Medium to high acidity and medium body. Needs to breathe for 30 mins before it opens up and the tannins become softer. Nose is leather, peppers and black fruits. Taste has earthiness, oak and peppery notes along with black ripe fruits.. Deep violet colour
