Sauska Cabernet Franc Siklós 2021

An ethereal Cabernet Franc characterised by the variety’s seductive and attractive aromas that are so difficult to put into words. It is a wine that must be tasted to be fully appreciated. Any description would fall short of capturing its complexity. The aromas are driven by florals, such as violets and lilies, as well as blueberries and eucalyptus. The round and rich palate is also vivid and fresh with ripe cherry and blueberry essence alongside Madagascar vanilla and allspice. The finish is persistent and flavourful.
