2018 Cabernet Franc
From our Riddoch Run vineyard, featuring small, intense berries, this is made with minimal intervention and packs maximum punch.
This Cabernet Franc shows charm and finesse. Textural, spicy, and balanced with a spark.

93 Points The Wine Front
This is delicious. Crunchy with red berries, but with weight, with good, fine tannins and just generally delightful! Has a good slosh in the palate, dark and broody, but lifts emphatically and wonderfully on fresh wisps of acidity. Under medium weight and just so darn delicious. Wicked drinking. Mike Bennie
93 Points James Halliday Wine Companion 2020
From a site planted in '85, this spent 8 months in one-pass and older French wood of various formats, attesting to the evolution at Rymill per tannin management. Again, nicely defined pulpy tannins with just the right amount of firmness, corralling franc's chili-cherry sappiness and gentle waft of verdant freshness. Lovely gear for the price. Ned Godwin
