Estate Range Cabernet Franc 2023

A poised and perfumed Cabernet Franc, offering bright red cherry, violets, and wet tobacco on the nose. The palate is supple yet structured, with refined tannins and a deep core of red fruit. Subtle savoury nuances emerge on the finish, where delicate tobacco and earthy notes add complexity. Elegant and expressive, with a long, lingering finish.
