Van Loggerenberg Wines Breton Cabernet Franc 2023 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R400
'Always among the Cape's finest expressions of Cabernet Franc, this is a wine "for purists", according to Lukas van Loggerenberg. Using fruit from two different Stellenbosch sites, it's a wine that's not afraid to be serious, with layers of damson and black cherry, violet and rocket top notes, racy minerality and some underlying grip. 2025-32' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 96/100
‘Crisp wine with the aroma of pencil shavings. Fine and truly varietal but not yet ready. 2025-2033’ – Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5+/20

The 2019 vintage is the fourth release for Lukas – a rising star, Young Gun and 2018 Young Winemaker of the Year by Tim Atkin. Lukas grew up in Rawsonville in the Breederivier valley, and was always surrounded by vineyards and wine. His wines are produced in the Devon Valley and the grapes are sourced from Stellenbosch, Paarl and Swartland.
