Perfumed and mineral on the nose with savoury red fruit, cigar box notes and a touch of oak spice. The palate is moreish and well balanced showing lovely poise and tension on the palate with a dry, powdery tannin structure.
Very stylish and elegant with lush red fruit, cranberries, beautiful mineral notes, some cedar character and slight tobacco leaf on the finish. Refreshing and vivid expression of Cabernet Franc that will pair well with leaner meats like venison, duck, and lamb, or earthy goats cheese.

A delayed, but good, winter rainfall allowed for adequate replenishing of reserves. A cool and wet spring allowed soil profiles to become well saturated. Winter was not as cold as the previous year but there was sufficient building up of reserves.
A cool budding period was experienced with delayed bud break. Veraison occurred later and ripening was prolonged due to low day temperatures which allowed for exceptional colour and flavor in the berries. A vintage showing high quality wines with good ageing potential.
