Babass Le Roc Cab Cabernet Franc 2018

Tasting Notes

I remember those earlier tourist visits to the Loire, and those young harsh, rough, bitey, tannic cabernet franc wines that may be drinkable in 10 years. Today is a new world! This natural & organic 2018 Cabernet Franc blend is a world apart. Initial earthy nose quickly converts to a more dusty savoury red fruited smell. So too the palate, moving quickly from the initial sizzle on the tongue to a lively midweight red fruited wine, with sweeter spice hints & acid support. Morish! 13% alc. - Michael L
