Loggerenberg Breton Cabernet Franc 2024

Features

Description

From the renowned vineyards of Stellenbosch, Lukas van Loggerenbergs Breton Cabernet Franc is a refined expression of elegance and structure. Crafted from carefully selected old-vine blocks in Polkadraai Hills and Lynedoch, this 100% Cabernet Franc undergoes minimal intervention with spontaneous fermentation and 11 months aging in second- and third-fill French oak barrels.

The wine opens with aromas of red and black cherries, violets, pencil shavings, and crushed herbs, while the palate is medium-bodied, layered, and balanced, showing juicy fruit, savory undertones, and a delicate floral lift. A long, harmonious finish with velvety tannins and bright acidity highlights its finesse and age-worthiness.

A limited-release gem, the Breton Cabernet Franc is ideal for connoisseurs seeking a structured, terroir-driven red with depth and personality.
