Cuvée de Cantegral Reserve – 2018; Calais Winery; Hye, Texas

When a well crafted Cabernet Franc comes knocking at your door, you cannot resist. Sitting in at 14.7 abv, this bad boy adds an extra special twist from being barrel fermented. Say what? Barrel fermented, you say? Say yes and just enjoy this very drinkable Cab Franc. Sourced from the Texas High Plains AVA, it is super delicious to say the least, offers a rich, full-bodied profile and comes across as reasonably smooth. Big surprises can come with a crafty way of making this varietal stand out elegantly. Santé!
