Juicy, brisk and focused, with intense flavors of cassis, candied licorice and herbs. Offers a lot of flavor & complexity with no excess weight. Finishes youthfully tannic & very long, with a hint of bitter chocolate & firm mineral bite.
One of the most widely grown grape varieties, it can be found in nearly every wine growing region. A cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc. It’s a hardy vine that produces a full-bodied wine with high tannins and great aging potential.
