An elegant and expressive red, this Cabernet Franc opens with an aromatic bouquet of wild berries, raspberry leaf, and floral hints of lavender, unfolding into layers of spice and a subtle trace of fresh herbs. The palate is rich yet refined, led by notes of cassis, blackberries, and vibrant red fruits, framed by well-integrated oak and savoury undertones. A finely structured wine with impressive depth, it carries a mineral edge and bright tension through a persistent, polished finish. Harvested in early April 2021 from hand-selected bunches, the grapes underwent meticulous berry sorting followed by a cold soak to enhance flavour extraction. Fermentation occurred in a combination of stainless steel and French oak (60% new), driven by wild yeasts and kept at cool temperatures to preserve purity. The wine matured for 22 months in barrel, with extended post-fermentation maceration to build complexity and texture. Crafted from predominantly free-run juice, this limited-release bottling promises graceful evolution over the next decade.
