Omaha Hills Cabernet Franc 2019, Auckland
A very dark coloured wine with an opaque core persistent to the rim where it turn bright purple. The nose and palate showcase aromas and flavours of blackberry and dark olive, toasty oak and plum, there’s a herb note of the variety that stands out then a coffee bean and chocolate suggestion. Bold and youthful tannins with acidity to match. Flavours of dark berries and olives return, some violet floral moments and plenty of toasty woods flavours especially clove. Youthful needing a lot more cellar time to find its true balance. Well made. Decant for service with best drinking from 2024 through 2030+
