Information about "Blackwater Sophie Cabernet Franc Cinsaut 2022"
The Blackwater Sophie Cabernet Franc Cinsaut is a well balanced and highly rated cuvée – the Cabernet Franc comes from Stellenbosch and the Cinsault grapes from Darling.
The wonderful spice and inviting juiciness are at the forefront, and the nose reveals nuances of cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant and gravel, which slowly open up to reveal hints of floral notes. On the palate, it is thoughtful, with aromas of violets, sage and boysenberries, as well as hints of graphite and green herbs in the background. The tannins, reminiscent of black tea, give the wine a wonderfully grippy texture.
