Sato Wines La Ferme de Sato Cabernet Franc "Sous Bois" 2021
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Cabernet France from Central Otago, New Zealand.
It's a rarity to see this variety in Central Otago - a region dominated by Pinot Noir - but on the North-Northeast facing slope of Block Four of Kyoko and Yoshi Sato's vineyard, it gets to perfect ripeness
Taste Profile: "Sous Bois" translates to "Forest Undergrowth", which is reminiscent of the earthy, savoury characters that present in Cabernet Franc grown on the Sato home vineyard.
Subtle and focused with precise blackberry, walnut, bark and mushroom character on the nose and palate. Medium-bodied, it’s linear and lightly chewy, giving this length and tension. So fascinating to taste and think about
Winemaking Process: Natural yeast fermentation. 14% whole bunch, 26 – 29 days on skins. 17 months in old French oak barrels
