Adelina Cabernet Franc 2022 - Clare Valley, South Australia

Raspberry, redcurrant, blackcurrant, some paprika, dried roses and mint. It’s medium-bodied, all the juicy small berried red fruits, fine dusty and slightly gravelly tannin, cranberry acidity, a cusp-of-ripeness yet varietal quality here, which gives it the slightly tense/edgy feel that’s so good about wines made from this grape, and a volcanic rocks and sappy finish of fine length. Mulberry with the stalks, some chew and excellent energy. It’s a bony wine of character and individual personality. What a drop!
