What to Expect

Cabernet Franc, along with Sauvignon Blanc, is a parent of the more famous Cabernet Sauvignon. Quite similar in many ways to Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc tends to have higher acid and lighter tannins than its offspring, with fruit in the redder end of the spectrum and a distinctive, aggressive herbal note that can dominate the wine's aromas.

Winemakers Notes

"The nose presents a combination ofblackberry, raisin, prune and apricot aromas that lengthen with oakyand spicy tones. On the palate, this wine displays great elegance withgood acidity, moderate tannins and bright berry fruit. Opening thiswine early will benefit the tasting, allowing the wine to breathe." - Winemaker NotesCheese Pairings: Goat, Blue, CamembertFood Pairings: Lamb Chops, Grilled Eggplant, Beef and Vegetable Stew
