Cape Mentelle Wallcliffe Cabernet Franc 2022

Cabernet Franc steps out from behind its usual blending role and stands proud. Take a deep breath and enjoy those stunning aromatics, so heady, so pretty and floral. Rose, rosehip, spice, anise work with red fruits glowing. It makes a fine pair with its sister, 2021 Wallcliffe Cabernet Franc, but gets the extra point for those stunning aromatics and immediate approachability. It is rounder and that little more generous and forward than its sibling. Very complete now with a palate built on fine tannins and well-integrated oak that allows the fruit to sing.
