WINES BOYA
Boya Cabernet Franc
With a bright ruby red colour, the Cabernet Franc Boya 2018 has an intense nose of fresh fruits like wild blackberry and raspberry character with a classic herbal note that opens to a more spicy profile that blends with an almost unnoticeable oak influence. The palate has nice grippy tanins with a juicy acidity that forms a nice structure to go with the red fruit in the finish. Without doubt the fresher version of this variety, coming from the Pacific Ocean coast.
Decanting recommended when young to fully appreciate.
Ideal pairing with lean meats, roasted preparations and legumes.
