    2021 L'Austral "Manta" Cabernet Franc (Loire Valley, FR) 3R

    Husband and wife team, Laurent and Pauline are natural winemaking connoisseurs. This Cabernet Franc is fun, funky, and chillable (essentially, a party in your glass). Crunchy, tart red and blue fruits mix with some umami earth, making this the perfect wine for picnics and BBQs!

    About The Varietal

    Cabernet Franc

    Cabernet Franc is a dark-skinned grape variety of French origin cultivated in numerous wine-producing regions across the globe. It is best recognized for its significant role as a red grape variety in the Loire Valley and as the third most important grape in Bordeaux. Cabernet Franc is also a common component in many of the world's finest Bordeaux blend wines.
