Les Ânes Cabernet Franc Lousteauneuf, AOC Médoc, 2023

Lot

5114

Grape Variety

Cabernet Franc

Producer

Vintex

Deep purple and more than a splash of rock ‘n’ roll about this youthful, flamboyant number. The nose is a dynamic mix of black pepper, pencil lead, graphite, wet stone, crushed blueberry, kirsch, blackberry and even agave. A medium-bodied palate offers ripe cherry, cooked blackberry, pencil shavings, just enough vanilla and wet earth for interest, all bound by fine tannins and a decent lick of acidity. 2025–2027–MP
