The 2017 Mosse Cabernet Franc comes from 40 year-old vines on schistes soils with clay and gravel. The soils bring a unique mineral character to the Cab Franc and the wine is bone dry with zero residual sugar. Not a fruit bomb, but quite elegant and long with earthy red currant and black raspberry fruit. Enjoy, served slighty cool, over the next ten years with a nice cut of meat.

The grapes are destemmed then poured into large wooden vats. Fermentation, maceration and punchdowns are done at the same time. The wines are then racked to large oak barrels for a spontaneous malolactic fermentation. After a racking of the gross less, the wines age in old Burgundian barrels.
