Pegasus Bay Cabernet Franc 2018, Waipara Valley, North Canterbury

It’s always a bold move to bottle a 100% Cabernet Franc, but this has certainly been the right decision for the Pegasus Bay team. Aromas of blackberry and spiced doris plums, sweet black olive and a savoury dried herb core. Scents of French oak form the foundation, but also build character and complexity into the bouquet. On the palate - delicious, dry, savoury with a core of fruit, firm tannins with a fine chalky texture, an abundance of acidity and overall harmonious story of wine. Ready to drink or continue to cellar with best drinking from mid to late 2022 through 2028.
