19% Cabernet Franc

There is once again excellent volume and richness to the velvet-textured flavors thanks to the abundant dry extract

exotic flowers and peppered meats

Like many of the wines in the range though this is very clearly built-to-age and isn’t a wine that is likely to drink especially well before at least its 10th birthday

Cedric Bouchard, Rose de Saignee Le Creux d'Enfer other_regions_australia 19% Cabernet FrancThe 2013 Ros de Saigne Le Creux d'Enfer has evolved beautifully, mingling notes of sweet red berries and orange rind with hints of poached pear, spices and fresh bread. Medium to full bodied, elegant and precise, if the 2012 is concentrated and tightly wound, the 2013 is bright, fine boned and charming, with a racy spine of acidity and delicately chalky phenolic structure. Charming and perfumed, this is drinking beautifully today.
