Joubert-Tradauw Reserve Cabernet Franc 2017

What a wine this is, outperforming the already impressive 2016 in terms of freshness, balance, complexity and palate length. Elegant, scented and refined, this has grassy, green herb aromas, silky tannins, integrated oak and real energy, vivacity and texture. Long, focused and very self-assured. Drink date: 2022-2029. Score - 95. (timatkin.com, South Africa Special Report 2020) 750 mL bottle
