Penley Estate Francis Cabernet Franc 2019


Cab Franc straight up. Super fresh less the oak.

A great slurp full stop. 40% whole berry fermentation, 30% whole bunch foot stomp, 30% whole bunch carbonic maceration. 60% whole bunch and a whole lot of tasty for good measure.

Juicy fruit is the hero here with lip smacking complexity from the whole bunches. Tomato bush, some Cabernet like leafiness and cut herbs wrap themselves around a welcome mat of blue fruit, violets and touches of Turkish Delight. Fine spices caress a long and enjoyable finish. Chill slightly to make it even more versatile. Big thumbs up.

Drink now to three years.
