Tasting Notes
Le Monde’s 2021 Cabernet Franc is hand-harvested and fermented and raised entirely in stainless steel tanks. The wine comes in at an even thirteen percent octane and delivers lovely depth of fruit in its complex bouquet of dark berries, coffee bean, cigar smoke, a fine base of chalky soil tones, a touch of tree bark and a lovely, discreet topnote of sweet botanicals.
