Raats Family Wines Dolomite Cabernet Franc 2021 Review
This savory expression of Cab Franc comes from cooler, south-facing slopes in South Africa’s Stellenbosch region. The result is a lifted, medium-bodied red with lively aromas of spice, green peppers, and herbs. The palate brings complex notes of chocolate covered cherries and dried chili peppers.
