Product information "Raats Dolomite Cabernet Franc 2018"
The Raats Dolomite Cabernet Franc has a beguiling scent of black and red cherries with spicy nuances. These aromas, already absorbed by the nose, are seamlessly carried through to the fruity, mineral and lively palate, which pampers with stunning balance and fine structure. A highly endowed and masterly Cabernet Franc!

Handpicked and sorted three times, the grapes were crushed and left on the skin for 5 days. After fermentation was completed at a constant 28 degrees, the mash was pressed in baskets. The malolactic fermentation took place in steel tanks, followed by 14 months of ageing in third, fourth and fifth barrels of French 300 litre oak.
