2019 Cabernet Franc

Classic cranberry and raspberry aromas highlighted by violet and black tea leaf. Flavours of cherry and blackberry. Graceful tannins lead to a generous finish.

About this wine

Cinwick Vineyard is on Naramata Road “below the road”, giving the fruit great complexity due to its interesting lacustrine soils. A cold snap in February caused some bud-damage resulting in low yields after an average summer created fruit with great flavour ripeness and intensity.
