Raka Cabernet Franc is bottled in limited quantities and only when we consider it superior quality. With these single varietals we "steal" a small volume of the best barrels that go into producing our blends.
Bouquet and Palate: Floral aromas with spice and liquorice on the nose. The palate is full rounded and refined showing fresh red fruit, slight smoky and herbal tones with a rich finish.
Style: Dry red wine
Cellar Technique: All grapes were hand picked and sorted in the vineyards. A second berry sorting was done in the cellar, before a pure yeast culture was inocculated. The juice was pumped over the skins 3-5 times per day and manual punch downs done for 5 days. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was drained off the primary lees and transferred to a resting tank. Malolactic fermentation and a brief settling period preceded the wines transfer to a combination of 225 litre barrels of French oak types. (25% New)
