Stuttgarter Herzogenberg Cabernet Franc
WONGAMAT · Cabernet Franc
“It is one of the introverted red wine types and long stood beside the big stage: Cabernet Franc”
Christoph Nicklas, Meininger Verlag
A grand cru monopole with some of the oldest Cabernet Franc vines in Germany. The gypsum keuper, rich in minerals and well aerated, gives the wines finesse and structure.
Old vines and a special soil produce profound, elegant wines with spicy notes and fine fruit.
