2022 Ravine Cabernet Franc
Cabernet Franc 2022 is a medium‑bodied, single‑varietal wine with expressive aromatics and a quietly layered palate. Aged 18 months in French oak, it reveals notes of ripe red berries, spearmint, cinnamon, and savoury forest floor, framed by medium tannins and medium‑high acidity. Dry and structured, it opens beautifully with air and is crafted to evolve gracefully over the next 8–10 years.

Tasting Notes: Deep ruby in colour, the nose is expressive and layered with notes of spearmint, ripe red berries, cinnamon stick, and savoury nuances of forest floor, mushroom, and black truffle. The palate is more reserved on entry, unfolding slowly with aeration to reveal textured savoury fruit and earthy complexity. Medium tannins and medium‑high acidity provide lift and structure, carrying through to a dry, savoury finish with lingering herbal notes.
Food Pairings: A natural partner for savoury, herb‑driven dishes, this Cabernet Franc pairs beautifully with lamb meatloaf, penne with sausage and fennel, sage‑roasted chicken with butternut squash, or eggplant parmesan. Its earthy undertones also complement mushroom‑based dishes and risotto‑stuffed vegetables.
