The 2024 Bleasdale Cabernet Franc is a vibrant Langhorne Creek expression, showcasing freshness, perfume and approachability. The nose opens with raspberry, red currant and cranberry, layered with rose petal, soft herbs and a touch of spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a lively, silky texture and fine tannins. Bright red fruit and subtle savoury notes are supported by fresh acidity, leading to a clean, crunchy and refreshing finish. The style is light, energetic and fruit-driven, designed for early enjoyment rather than long cellaring.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great introduction to Cabernet Franc — a fresh, easy-drinking red that offers perfume, lift and versatility. It’s ideal for customers who enjoy lighter reds such as Pinot Noir or Loire Valley styles. Best enjoyed young and slightly chilled, making it perfect for casual dining, charcuterie, roast vegetables or grilled chicken.
