Cabernet Franc 2022 from Zafiri Winery is a textbook expression of the variety, managing to combine the elegance that defines it with the expressiveness and dense, ripe fruit bestowed by the warm climate of Nemea! The spicy caress of oak comes in to complement the fruit, composing a wine that will effortlessly take centre stage at any Sunday roast.
Georgia Zavvou, the third generation of the winery, returned after working in Burgundy and US with the aim of revitalising the family estate, which was founded in 1956. Across 13 privately owned hectares of vineyards in Ancient Nemea, they cultivate both Greek and international varieties, with remarkable results.
Cabernet Franc 2022 Zafiri Winery originates from vineyards in the mountainous Nemea. Fermentation takes place in open oak vats using indigenous yeasts, and the wine is then aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels. This lends the wine velvety tannins along with a spicy and chocolatey character.
