“An alluring lifted nose of red and black currants, spearmint, and toasty cedarwood. A full-bodied expression of Cabernet Franc, with sweet red currant fruits, spiced plums, and exacting tannins that are chiselled and underscored by a backbone of good acidity that helps bring everything into focus through the lengthy finish of saline minerals and dusty wild herbs.”
