Fidelitas's only Red Mountain Cabernet Franc, from Ciel du Cheval Vineyard, made in small lots and aged about 22 months in neutral French oak so the fruit shows clearly. It is perfumed with potpourri and loganberry and has the grape's savoury bell-pepper lift. The palate is dense yet seamless, with stony, saline notes and a long finish.
