Tasting notes
- Aroma: red cherry and raspberry with subtle herbal undertones and a hint of graphite.
- Palate: medium-bodied with lively acidity and fine-grained tannins; flavors echo red fruit with touches of peppery spice and earthy hints.
- Finish: persistent and savory, leaving a mineral-tinged impression.
Food pairing
Ideal with herb-crusted lamb, grilled vegetables, mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses such as Comté or Gruyère. Its bright fruit and savory notes also make it a versatile match for roasted poultry and tomato-based pastas.
Serving and aging
Best served slightly below room temperature (around 60–64°F / 15–18°C). While enjoyable upon release, this Cabernet Franc has the potential to evolve in the bottle for a few years, developing deeper complexity over time.
