CABERNET FRANC 2022
$38.00
Vibrant bright purple in colour, the wine itself is like crushing fresh cherries in your hands and drinking the juice! Trudy suggests chilling the bottle to experience the full spectrum of summer in the glass while soaking up those golden rays… Pair with pizza, seafood pastas, cheese and charcuterie…or just sip by the pool. Or in it!

This, the third vintage of the Nouveau Cabernet Franc sees a change from Margaret River to the Albany region in Western Australia’s south west – but remains a single vineyard wine. The much cooler site provides an extended hang-time on the vine, resulting in a longer ripening period and greater intensity of varietal aromatics flavour and natural acidity.
Like all Nouveau styles, the fresher the better – the grapes are picked at optimum ripeness, crushed and hand-plunged on skins for seven days, then cold pressed to preserve the bright aromatics and colour. Only free run juice is racked into stainless steel where the magic of spontantious malolcatic fermentation occurs and SHAZAM! the wine is ready to be bottled!
Like all Break Free wines, there is no filtration or fining and mimimal sulphur on bottling to keep the wine fresh and lively.
