Domaine Gayda, Figure Libre Cabernet Franc, Pays d'Oc, 2018

A gorgeously perfumed nose here, soft touches of flowers and cherries, with an almost smoked, charred touch. This is full bodied with complex layers of red and black fruit - blackcurrants, strawberries and cherries, baking spices and stony, mineral acidity that keeps things super lively and fresh. Elegant and characterful and seriously easy to drink - one I immediately wanted a glass of.
