2022 EB84 Francly Ridiculous Cabernet Franc, Macedon Ranges, Mac Forbes
Mac thought it was frankly ridiculous he had to travel all the way to the Macedon Ranges to find top quality Cabernet Franc, but find it they did and this is full of the same charm and character as the rest of the range from Yarra. They used 10% whole bunch, 60% whole berry, and 30% foot-stomped fruit before fermenting with indigenous yeasts. The wine was then aged for 7 months in large and small old oak before being bottled unfiltered. This has old-world leafy freshness and fine tannins. It has Mac's trademark transparency and a mixture of black and red brambly, aromatic fruit flavours.
