Artisan Range Cabernet Franc : Fresh, Elegant & Complex

Vrede en Lust's Artisan Range Cabernet Franc is a distinguished red wine from the cool-climate vineyards of Elgin, South Africa. The vines, planted in 2008 on a 1.1-hectare north-facing slope at Casey’s Ridge, benefit from Elgin's cooler temperatures, allowing for a longer ripening period that enhances the grape's aromatic profile and natural acidity. This meticulous cultivation results in a wine that exemplifies the elegance and complexity characteristic of Cabernet Franc.

On the nose, this wine presents a captivating bouquet of red fruits, notably ripe cherries and plums, intertwined with subtle hints of fynbos and savory undertones. The medium-bodied palate offers fine, fresh tannins and generous length, with distinct intensity balancing the appealing fruit-forwardness. Flavors of red berries are complemented by a touch of chocolate, leading to a smooth, lingering finish.

This Cabernet Franc pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, hearty pasta, and aged cheeses. Its approachable yet complex profile makes it a versatile choice for both casual gatherings and refined meals.

Whether you're enjoying a cozy dinner with friends in Al Barsha Dubai, or hosting an elegant evening at Al Raha Beach in Abu Dhabi, Vrede en Lust Artisan Range Cabernet Franc brings a taste of South African craftsmanship to your table.
