Ferox by Fabian Reis
Reminiscent of age-worthy Loire Valley Cabernet Franc, this 2020 iteration showcases restrained power and finesse on the aromatic and palate profile. Notes of blackberry, pomegranate and blueberry round off the primary fruit, with a subtle note of oregano and thyme showcased as the wine oxidises. Cedar and smoky butterscotch secondary aromatics round off a complex nose, due to two years in neutral 225L barriques. The palate is dominated by bright acid that acts cohesive to the red and black fruit on the initial palate (ripened raspberry, blackberry and Southern Highbush blueberry. The tannins are grippy, but fine and integrated, alongside the wood tannin. Drink now, or age for 10-15 years.
