Cabernet Franc
Red Wines
CDescription
Strength and grace balance each other in this unusual version of Cabernet, to enjoy a very classy wine, compact in its dark ruby red colour, with a sudden fragrance and equally promising tasting complexity. Hints of plum jam, blackcurrant, even tamarind, for a clear perception of pepper and liquorice and fresh balsamic and vegetal sensations of rocket and tobacco. On the palate it extends with authority, almost crunchy and well balanced. Savory structure and well-defined, balanced tannins which give a pleasant softness. The finish is long with a good aromatic persistence in which the tones of red fruit jam and a delicate trail of cocoa return.
Food pairing
Definitely frank pairings, with grilled red meats and other preparations, also suitable for a curious variant: with steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, perhaps with celeriac-based mousse, for many other vegetarian culinary specialities.
