Our sixth Cabernet Franc, we skipped 2019, 100% grown from a neighbouring vineyard planted in 1982 and made at Brash HQ. Vintage 2020 provided good growing conditions with an even season punctuated by small berry set. The idea for this FRNC was to focus on the aromatics and delicacy of the fruit, making it a breeze to drink but still complex, age worthy.

This is a straightforward but quite pretty Cab Franc from a small-batch, natural-leaning producer. Ripe red and black fruit lead on the nose, backed by gentle notes of ground white pepper, florals and an umami-like tang. The palate is medium weight with powerful, somewhat pinching tannins, silky fruit, lifted acidity and a short finish.
