Touraine Cabernet Franc 2019 Le Rocher des Violettes
杉と鉛筆の芯が香る、気品のフラン。
手摘みのぶどうと丁寧な樽熟成から生まれるカベルネ・フラン100%。深みのあるルビー色のグラスに、ブラックチェリーやカシスの黒系果実、スミレ、杉、わずかな土や鉛筆の芯のニュアンスが重なります。しなやかで張りのある酸が骨格を支え、繊細なタンニンが心地よく広がり、余韻にはミネラル感とハーブの清涼感。鴨のローストや兎肉のマスタード煮込みとともに。
Tasting note
Deep ruby in color, the aroma that rises from the glass is complex and elegant, with notes of black fruits such as black cherry and cassis layered with violet, cedar, a hint of earth and pencil lead. When you put it in your mouth, the supple and taut acidity supports the structure, and the delicate tannins spread pleasantly. The ripe fruit flavor is complemented by subtle spice and roasted aromas from the barrel, leaving a mineral and herbal freshness in the aftertaste. A high-quality Cabernet Franc that has the potential to become even smoother and more elegantly harmonious with age.
