Lukas Van Loggerenberg Breton Cabernet Franc is a stellar South African wine, embodying a rich, velvety palate and bold, layered flavours. It elegantly marries fragrant whispers of raspberry, violet, and cherry with opulent tones of ripe plums and herbal hints, underlain by soft tannins. This powerhouse Cabernet Franc boasts a vibrant ruby-red hue with an overall balance and finesse that leaves a lasting impression. Aged in French oak barrels, it delivers a refined complexity, with a delicately structured finish that makes it a versatile wine for pairing. A not-to-be-missed treat for fine wine enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes

The 2020 has the most detailed aromatics of any vintage to date. Blackcurrant, rosehip, lavender and red cherries vie for attention with a leafy, minty freshness borne out of a love-affair with the great Cabernet Francs of the Loire Valley. A lively fresh natural acidity and ripe, persistent tannins make this a joy to drink. Finishes on sweet berries
