Awards Notes: 92/100 Natalie MacLean.
One beautiful, medium-plus-bodied and lush Lolitta of a Cabernet Franc! Adega on 45th Winery Cab Franc 2022 is spicy, saucy and yummy with dark cherry, crushed raspberries, fine dried herbs, sweet, dried tobacco leaf and very smooth tannins. Lovely balance and length on this sophisticated CF. So good now but could easily hold to 2028. Paired with a grilled petit tendre filet rubbed in garlic and black truffle oil and presented on a spinach and green onion galette accompanied with crispy russet potato fries roasted in duck fat. Absolutely delish and a perfect pairing to this weighty wine. Tasted October 2025.
Tasting Notes: A big red wine, the Cab Franc is bursting with spice, black cherry, and peppery notes with hints of violet. This wine has lots of tannins and spicy flavours with underlying notes of earthiness, plum and anise.
