Yayoi 2024 Férot

Notes from Steffi who makes the wine:
This year, I crafted two distinct styles of Cabernet Francs, highlighting the grape's versatility. For Fèrot, I aimed for a lighter, vibrant, and aromatic style reminiscent of Beaujolais, using 100% carbonic fermentation. The result is a fruit-forward, fragrant Cabernet Franc, hand-picked from a 33-year-old dry-grown vineyard in Moorabool Valley, Geelong. Fermented and aged in stainless steel to preserve its pure fruit essence, this medium to light-bodied wine is rich in aroma and "juicy" in character, gliding effortlessly on the palate and enjoyed slightly chilled or at room temperature.
