The Starting Point Cabernet Franc 2019

From The Starting Point in China’s Ningxia, the Cabernet Franc 2019 is a refined 100% Cabernet Franc from old vineyards on sandy soils. Fermented with natural yeasts in stainless steel and aged in French oak barrels, it employs organic practices, offering a ruby hue with vibrant complexity.

Tasting Notes

A vibrant, structured red with rich fruit, showcasing Ningxia’s terroir.
The nose reveals dark berry, black cherry, and herbs, with hints of spice and vanilla. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and balanced, with chalky tannins, fresh acidity, and flavors of red fruit, floral notes, and a long, smooth finish.

Food Pairings

Pair this red with Western dishes like roasted duck or mushroom risotto to highlight its vibrant fruit and minerality. For Chinese cuisine, try 豉汁蒸排骨, 燒鴨, 香菇燉雞, 紅燒肉, 醬爆牛柳, or 椒鹽雞翼 to complement its silky texture and savory notes. Ideal for refined dinners or casual gatherings.

Serving and Cellaring

Serve at 16°C with one hour of decanting to enhance aromas. Enjoy now or cellar until 2027 for added complexity, developing deeper floral and spice notes. Explore our Ningxia collection for more Cabernet Franc classics.
