About this Item
Collection of The Mentors Cabernet Franc 2021
12 (1 x 12) 750ml
Truly an exceptional expression of Cabernet Franc - bold, yet beautifully poised. Aromas of spice, pencil shavings, wild fynbos and dark cherries give way to a layered, finely textured palate. Powdery tannins and a silky finish bring elegance to its structured frame, while vibrant juiciness adds lift and depth. A striking example of this noble variety's potential in South African soils - complex, confident, and certainly also cellar-worthy
