Cabernet Franc

2016 Cabernet Franc
Denmark, Western Australia

Floral and perfumed with elegant aromas of blackcurrant. Undertones of seasoned French oak. A medium to full bodied Cabernet Franc that exhibits a plush and integrated tannin structure wonderfully intertwined with the seasoned oak. Flavours of blueberry, plum and a warm spicy finish. Drinking well now but will continue to age for the next five to ten years.

Description

Hand-picked, the fruit was crushed and de-stemmed before being fermented in open top stainless steel tanks using gentle extraction (hand plunging) to maximise the varietal flavours and secure a soft and plush tannin stucture in the fruit. The wine was then pressed off and matured in seasoned French oak for 10 months. Minimal fining and filtration prior to bottling.

A classic example of cool climate Cabernet Franc. An elegant, floral lift with blueberry and an underlying seasoned oak aroma. The palate is well weighted with soft tannins and rich red fruit interwoven with warm spices from the seasoned French oak. A full bodied wine with a persistent finish.
