Raats Dolomite Cabernet Franc is a vibrant, elegant and deeply characterful red from the granitic Polkadraai Hills of Stellenbosch, one of South Africa's most exciting terroirs for the variety. Crafted by Bruwer Raats, widely regarded as one of the Cape's most gifted winemakers, this is Cabernet Franc of real purity, minerality and finesse. Why You'll Love It Founded in 2000, Raats Family Wines has built its reputation on a singular focus: excellence through specialisation in Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc. Bruwer Raats identified the unique potential of the decomposed dolomite granite soils in Polkadraai Hills early on, and the Dolomite Cabernet Franc is the expression of that vision. Regarded as one of the finest examples of the variety in the southern hemisphere, this is a wine that rewards those who appreciate elegance, complexity and a genuine sense of place. Vineyard & Production Sourced exclusively from vineyards planted on decomposed dolomite granite soils in Polkadraai Hills, Stellenbosch, which impart freshness, vibrant acidity and a distinct mineral character. Grapes are hand-harvested in February at optimal ripeness and triple hand-sorted before crushing. A five-day cold soak on skins precedes fermentation at 28 degrees, followed by basket pressing and malolactic fermentation in stainless steel. The wine is then aged for 14 months in French 300-litre barrels with no new oak, preserving purity and elegance. Tasting Notes Dark and red cherry aromas layered with spice and herbaceous notes. The palate shows dark berries, graphite and a hint of wet-stone minerality, leading to a soft, velvet finish. Floral and approachable, yet balanced and complex with real depth. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for game birds in red wine sauce, beef fillet and pork loin. Also excellent with duck breast, mushroom-based dishes and aged hard cheeses.
