2023 Amoise Cabernet Franc

In Winemaker Amy Farnsworth's words:

"The Cabernet Franc is a dark, inky coloured wine with raspberry leaf aromas, brambles and blueberries. The flavours continue through to the medium bodied palate, finishing with satisfying crunchy acid. This is a gentle approach to Cab Franc, heavy on approachability and the refreshment scale.

The grapes are grown organically by my lovely growers Bridget & Miles at the TK Vineyard, in Bridge Pa, Hawke’s Bay. The vines are 23 years old and I have 10 rows in total. Having allocated rows allows me to apply Biodynamic preparations to the soil and canopies during the growing season, as well as contributing to various vine work. No additions at any stage, including sulphur. The wine is unfiltered and unfined."
