2018 Cabernet Franc 'Breton', Lukas van Loggerenberg

2018 Cabernet Franc 'Breton', Lukas van Loggerenberg

An astonishing Cabernet Franc this year from Lukas, to go head-to-head with the world’s best. From vineyards in Stellenbosch’s Polkedraai area. Very pure, focussed, and incredibly long. This will age brilliantly.

Tasting notes

Lukas van Loggerenberg is a kind and gentle giant who makes wines that combine elegance, precision and sheer pleasure. This delicious Cabernet Franc comes from three farms in the Polkadraai Hills and is a grassy, delicately articulated marvel. Violet and lead pencil aromas segue into a fresh, nuanced, subtly wooded palate.
