The Gašper Cabernet Franc is sourced from low-yielding, 50-year-old vines. Hand-picked grapes are crushed and macerated on their skins for eight days before fermentation. The wine ages for 18 months in a combination of new, 350-litre French oak barrels, large neutral casks and stainless-steel tanks. This is a delightful Cabernet Franc that has a rich and aromatic nose with perfumed notes of cherries, plum, blackberries, and black pepper. The palate is smooth with great red fruit character, ripe, supple tannins and a long persistent finish.
