Product information "Raats Family Cabernet Franc 2017"
The Raats Family Cabernet Franc is a highly endowed top wine from vines that are over 20 years old! Intense and expressive aromas of black olives, herbaceous fynbos, sun-kissed mulberries and fragrant gingerbread spice enchant the nose. Blackberries, graphite and fine mineral notes complete this complex and exciting bouquet. These aromas, already sniffed by the nose, continue seamlessly to the full-bodied and lush palate and end in a long and wonderfully lingering finish.

Handgeerntet und dreimal verlesen, wurde das Traubengut angequetscht und fünf Tage lang auf der Haut gelassen. Nach Abschluss der Fermentierung ging es in die traditionelle Korbpresse. Die malolaktische Fermentierung fand in Stahltanks statt woraufhin der Wein 18 Monate lang in französischen Barriques reifte (25 % Neuholz).
