The Garajeest Bruce Cabernet Franc 2019

Bruce is a small-batch Cabernet Franc that leans into purity, place and personality. Crafted with minimal interference, it’s all about letting the grape speak — fresh, expressive and quietly complex rather than loud or overworked.

In the glass, you’ll find red berries, wild herbs and a gentle leafy note, balanced by fine tannins and natural acidity. There’s a savoury edge that keeps it serious, but it stays bright and drinkable from first pour to last sip.

This is Cabernet Franc done the Garajeest way: honest, slightly unconventional, and made for people who like their wines with character — not polish for the sake of it.
