Batic Cabernet Franc 2020
Vipavska Dolina, Slovenia. "Most of the fruit comes from the 52 year old Jazbine vineyard. Formally planted to cherries, peaches, and pears, Ivan (Miha’s father), planted this vineyard with the sale from the aforementioned fruit. Heavy clay with the ubiquitous marl, it’s cool enough to also grow Welschriesling and Chardonnay here. After macerating for 10 days it then spends 24 months in barrel. Apart from topping barrels, nothing else was done until bottling. Phenomenal acid, a fine-grained texture, and a balance of fruity and savory flavors make this an elegant Slovenian twist on such an internationally known varietal."
