Wickhams Road Yea Valley Cabernet Franc
Yea Valley
Price Range at Release: $12-$19
Vintage: 2022
Alc %: 13.5
$ Rel: 19
A long, complete and even stylish cabernet franc whose vibrant but dusty perfume of raspberries, redcurrants and light cedary oak reveals a hint of dried herbs. Supported by a fine, gravelly spine, its vivacious palate of red and blue fruits fills the mouth before honing in towards a fresh and almost savoury finish.
