Why we love this Wine
Pikes’ fifth vintage of their ‘Rising Ground’ Cab Franc - and it’s a winner. A cooler season heralds a return to refinement, with sleek tannins, bright red cherry and a moreish acid structure keeping us on our toes. A perfectly bright little all-seasons red for lunch, for dinner, for picnics, for pasta.
