Characteristics:
Single Vineyard Cabernet Franc planted on free draining 'koffieklip' soils on the Southern slopes of Stellenbosch Kloof, 12-odd kilometres from False Bay and its cool Atlantic influence. Aromas of mulberry, liquorice and cinnamon. The palate is harmonious, with plums, graphite, fragrant herbs wrapped in velvet tannin. This Cabernet Franc has an amazing future and will reward those diligent enough to give it time to shine. Vegan friendly.
