Product information "Morgenster Cabernet Franc 2023"
The Morgenster Cabernet Franc presents itself of deep ruby red with youthful violet colored reflexes in the glass and exudes a classic bouquet of lush cassis and concentrated fruit aromas as well as subtle hints of peanut and cinnamon spice. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of red fruits, blackcurrants and ripe plums, paired with subtle undertones of tobacco and warm spices. Its soft and velvety tannin and its fruity, youthful style combine with a beautiful weight on the palate and promise a dazzling pleasure experience!

The hand-picked grapes were transported in the early hours of the morning to the winery, where, after cooling overnight, they were lightly squeezed into stainless steel tanks the next morning. During the alcoholic fermentation, which lasted for seven days, the tanks were slightly warmed up for better fermentation conditions and the cap was immersed twice a day to extract maximum colour and tannin. Once the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in the tank was completed, the wine was transferred to third and fourth barriques where it was aged for 12 months before bottling.
