Di Giorgio Family Wines, Cabernet Franc, Coonawarra, 2019

Oh this is fun. Bright, juicy and lifted. Dusty violet (varietal), with slick black currant, spiced cherry, cinnamon spice, purple jube pastille and a touch of leafy spearmint. Bitter herbs over that slick dark black/purple fruit with waxy yet drying tannins. Dark, slippery fun.
