A classic Cabernet Franc, with notes of red berries, blackcurrant, and wild ferns... On the palate, it’s fresh, delicate, and elegant, with soft tannins and a finish featuring distinct raspberry aromas. A simple yet very well-crafted red wine, perfect with a platter of charcuterie.

Bottled without fining, after light filtration and with a low dose of sulfur.
