Millbrook Winery (Australia)
Proprietor's Special Reserve Cabernet Franc
Savory, earthy, black berries. Good acid, can benefit from aging. Paired well with rack of lamb.

Oct 23rd, 2019Note that Delectable is identifying this wine as Australian. It is from the Hudson River Valley in New York State, USA (Millbrook, New York). Regardless, a nice Cab Franc made to a good level of ripeness, so lacking the vegetal qualities that some Chinon and Bourgueil wines have when not quite ripe. Nice fruit with a touch of smoke and earth.
