The Botanica Wines 2024 Stellenbosch Big Flower Cabernet Franc incorporates roughly one-third whole-cluster fruit alongside destemmed and crushed fruit, introducing a subtle carbonic lift that brightens the wine's profile. Notes of cola, raspberry and lavender lead, followed by rosemary, leafy spice and a distinctly botanical quality driven by the whole-cluster component. Light on its feet yet characterful, the wine highlights Cabernet Franc's natural perfumes and its savory edge.

Vinification

The organically farmed grapes were destemmed, crushed and fermented in open top fermentation tanks, with punch downs performed twice daily. The wine was gently pressed and racked to barrel for malolactic fermentation. It was aged for 11 months in 2nd, 3rd and 4th fill 300L French oak barrels.
