Description
In a nutshell:
If you love a big, juicy red but crave something a bit different from the usual suspects, this smooth Californian Cabernet Franc is a delightful surprise.
The lowdown:
This vibrant Californian red bursts with juicy red fruit - think cherries and plums - accented by the classic blackcurrant leaf notes of Cabernet Franc. Sourced from mature vines in a renowned Lodi vineyard, the wine strikes a lovely balance. It's medium-bodied, smooth, and undeniably easy-drinking. The fresh fruit character shines through thanks to limited oak contact - just two months to add subtle structure. Expect those blackberry and dark cherry flavours to mingle with a touch of herbaceousness for a wine that epitomises easy enjoyment.
The Producer:
Boutinot, the guys responsible for this wine, is a big name in the UK's wine scene and are behind many labels seen on shelves up and down the country. Paul Boutinot kicked things off in 1980, starting with importing wines and soon partnering with winemakers around the globe. They've since gone on to produce their own wines from places like the Rhône Valley, Italy, South Africa and many other places. Their secret is in backing passionate winemakers who aren't afraid to push the envelope, always aiming for wines that really capture the essence of their regions. This, along with providing excellent value for money, is something they've really nailed.
When to drink:
An easy-drinking red that'll shine alongside vegetarian fare - think mushroom risotto or a roasted vegetable tart - and will cut beautifully through the richness of your favourite tomato and meat ragu.
Suitable for Vegans
