Leabrook Estate Adelaide Hills Cabernet Franc 2006
- Region Adelaide Hills, SA
- Type Red
- Size 750ml
- Alcohol 14%
Cabernet Franc is seldom seen as a single varietal wine. This one however, leaves us in no doubt about why it is on its own. It has such concentrated primary fruit combining musk, plums and dusty cherries on the nose before offering floral notes and dark chocolate and lovely chewy tannins on the palate. - SG

Nick Stock, The Penguin Wine Guide
says:A nicely ripened, even and fragrant style; this looks at home up in the Adelaide Hills with leaves and brambly forest berries, a nice slice of oak here too. A gently spicy palate rolled out on elegant, fine-knit tannins and a satisfying, balanced finish.
James Halliday, the Wine Companion
says:Has retained good hue; very much in the savoury/rose petal/cigar box style of the Loire Valley/Chinon. A powerful wine that takes no prisoners.
