Maison Noire Hawke’s Bay Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2021 $35 
The nose of this wine absolutely roars with bay leaf and bouquet garni characters, a dusting of dark cocoa, gentle, plush plums and boysenberries ahoy! Classic cabernet characters of cigar box and cedar merge with blackcurrant, dark cherry, hints of black olive and briny goodness and a balsamic glaze. Peppercorn and seasoned leather tie it all together with elastic tannins and a suede-like finish.
