Van Loggerenberg Breton Cabernet Franc 2020 – Stellenbosch<\/a><\/span> \u2013 94 points<\/strong>
Needs air and time. Initially a hint of plaster, then steely and chalky with fresh black pepper and cherry pit. Opens gently in the glass. Wonderfully juicy, very clear, and vibrant on the palate with great acidity and tightly woven tannins. A light-bodied CF that lacks nothing and smiles at excessive power. Fresh garden herbs, a touch of juniper, and a crisp, mineral finish.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n- Uva Mira The Dance Cabernet Franc 2021 <\/a>– Stellenbosch<\/span> \u2013 94 points<\/strong>
Juicy dark forest raspberry alongside herbal juniper, thyme notes, and damp forest floor. Distinctive yet harmonious, with hints of liquorice and cedarwood. Wonderfully juicy with flow and fine, already slightly polished tannins. Walnut and black cherry join the aromas from the nose. Overall a balanced, powerful yet always drinkable style thanks to its bright acidity. Truly captivating!<\/li>\r\n- \r\n
Hogan Mirror for the Sun Cabernet Franc 2023 – Stellenbosch<\/a> <\/span>\u2013 94 points<\/strong>
Very subtle and aromatically restrained. Racy and linear, needs time and air. Slightly reductive and tightly wound. Fresh acidity paired with fine, wiry tannins and a firm structure \u2013 yet perfectly balanced. Pure and even slightly mineral. Dense but never concentrated or opulent. As young and closed as it may be, its great potential clearly shines through \u2013 hence the high score.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n- Glenelly Glass Collection Cabernet Franc 2017 – Stellenbosch<\/a><\/span> \u2013 94 points<\/strong>
Eucalyptus and fresh green mint on the nose, with ethereal notes, pinecones, and fir needles. Racy, precise, and refreshing. Mirrors the nose on the palate \u2013 complex, linear, and very pure. Shows character and noble style without being a fruit bomb. Gentle tannins, a touch of underripe raspberry, and an invigorating flow. Long and elegant \u2013 proof that CF can be both refined and vibrant.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/shop.kapweine.ch\/?isOverlayOpen=true¤tQuery=vinum&selectedEq=%7B%22rebsorten%22%3A%5B%22270%22%5D%7D” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Discover more top-rated Cabernet Francs” button_alignment=”center” module_class=”custom-button-hover” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_bg_color=”#FFFFFF” button_border_width=”2px” button_border_radius=”0px” button_font=”Prompt||||||||” button_use_icon=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]From Soil to Glass \u2013 South Africa\u2019s Cabernet Franc Shows Its Character<\/h3>\r\n

Preparation<\/h4>\r\n
Prepare the venison:<\/strong>
Season the meat with salt and pepper. Sear it all around in a hot pan with olive oil. Add herbs, garlic, and butter, then continue cooking over medium heat for about 5\u20136 minutes, basting regularly with the melted butter.

Peel the celery and potato, cut into pieces, and cook in milk until soft. Drain, add butter, and pur\u00e9e until smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.<\/p>\r\nCranberry shallots:<\/strong>
Halve the shallots and saut\u00e9 them in butter until translucent. Add sugar and allow to caramelize lightly, then stir in the cranberries and balsamic vinegar. Reduce briefly until a glossy sweet-sour sauce forms.<\/p>\r\nTo serve:<\/strong>
Place the celery pur\u00e9e on the plate, slice the venison, and arrange it on top. Drizzle with the red wine jus and serve the cranberry shallots on the side.<\/p>\r\nWine Recommendation<\/h4>\r\n
