Information about "Neil Ellis Insignium Cabernet Franc 2019"
The Neil Ellis Insignium Cabernet Franc 2019 is an extraordinary limited release sourced from Stellenbosch. The grapes flourish in weathered granite and sandstone soils, influenced by the monumental Table Mountain. It showcases a deep, intense ruby-granite color that alludes to remarkable concentration.
On the nose, it brings together dark and red cherries with violet notes, aromatic herbs, and a hint of dried rosemary and thyme. The palate is vibrant and elegantly structured, featuring bright berry fruit, refreshing acidity, and delicate herbal nuances alongside a subtle peppery earthiness.
The finish is lengthy and balanced, revealing persistent red fruits and spiciness that beautifully reflects the Stellenbosch terroir.
