About This Wine
It’s a shame that we don’t see more Cabernet Franc producers playing with carbonic maceration. The berries, herbs, and savoury spice characteristics of the varietal, seem to be such a good match for the style.
Jake at Trutta nailed the brief with this one though, it’s light, juicy and very much showcasing the hallmark flavour profile of Franc.
Hands off winemaking, gentle touch, but lots of thoughtfulness in the production of this wine, it’s a winner for sure!

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
