Cabernet Franc has always been playing a supporting role in the world’s most expensive blue-chip wine in #bordeaux #france🇫🇷 such as #chateauausone #chevalblanc and #lamissionhautbrion etc. It rarely steals the spotlight from #cabernetsauvignon and #Merlot except in the least noticed #french wine region the Loire. Happy Cabernet-Franc Day! Innovative winemakers around the world sees the full potential of this almost invisible grape and have started to produce the most drinkable, flirtatious wine. For instance, 1. Turkey’s @chamlija makes delicious 100% #cabernetfranc and ultimately blends it with #merlot . 2. Les Astéries 2015, significant 20% Cab-Franc. #lesasteries #stemiliongrandcru 3. The Loire produces the world’s priciest Cab-Franc. Guiberteau - Samur Les Motelles 2013 made from 100% Cab-Franc is affordable and full of surprises!!!! (Stay tunes for our upcoming post on #loirevalley #redwine ) #guiberteau These wine are available at our online shop. #happycabernetfrancday #winelovers #frenchwine #turkishwine #hkwine #evercohol https://www.instagram.com/p/BrAAT-Nn8Wb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rn277qk1yh0
