PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Joubert-Tradauw is a family-owned private cellar in the Tradouw Valley in the Klein Karoo / Little Karoo region on the famous R62 route. The farm is located just outside the picturesque village of Barrydale. The Joubert Tradauw Reserve Cabernet Franc 2017 is a classic, well-balanced, thinly layered red wine with brooding garnet of sweet red and black hedgerow fruit combined with stewed apples and cranberry. Hints of spice with cigar box aromas. Tannins are re-assuring with a cedar plum finish. This brilliant Cabernet Franc is one of the best in South Africa, produced in the slightly unlikely surroundings of Tradouw in the Klein Karoo. Wonderfully smooth, floral and refined, this handles its 50% new oak with style, showing graphite, black cherry and vanilla notes.
