Rosehall Run 2006 Cabernet Franc   

Hits:319
Rating:4,20 (5 Votes)
Date added;:01.May.2008
Author :Michael Pinkus - Grape Guy
DescriptionDescription  This Franc is made from all County fruit and had a kind of double ageing process. 55% went into new and one year old French oak for 9 months; the other 45% sat for only four months in a mix of 2-plus year old French, American and Hungarian oak. The nose is subtle with red fruit and a touch of smokiness; while the flavour profile brings more to the table. Red fruit, cinnamon, a touch of tannins on the finish – but the best part of this wine is that it is smooth and silky – a wine you shouldn’t be afraid to stick in the fridge and give a little chill to. Price: $17.95
