Ross Hill Pinnacle Cabernet Franc offers cranberries and BRIGHT red cherries – overtly aromatic, and compelling before it’s sipped. There’s no identity crisis here – unmistakable FRANC – the fruit sits proudly above all else. Oak does its best to tame the buzzard, but it’s all in vain, as the agility and verve of the fruit trumps all-comers. It’s a tremendous wine, and undoubtedly in the finals for Australia’s best Cabernet Franc.
