The 2010 Negre Franc is an unusual blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sumoll aged for one year in oak barrels. It has an intense herbaceous nose with notes of bell pepper and raspberry leaf intermixed with aromas of wild berries and very well-integrated components from the wood. The palate is medium-bodied, with a fine texture, round tannins and moderate acidity. Drink now-2017. Born in St. Sadurni d-Anoia, winemaker Ramon Parera and vine-grower Jordi Arnan started this project in 1996 with a solid base of 40 hectares of vineyards in the property Can Comas. They produce 60,000 bottles of wine per year. Various importers, Juan Prieto Selections/T.
