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

One year of barrel aging highlights the cherry and blackberry fruit flavors and adds some vanilla notes but keeps the tannins on the finish soft. Drink now or age for three to five years.

Reviews

The only estate wine currently available, the Cabernet Franc is a nice, medium-bodied red which is eminently drinkable now, or can be aged an additional 3-5 years. Barrel-aged for one year, the wine has soft notes of blackberry and cherry in the nose. There’s a lovely soft mouth-feel, with notes of both cherry and blackberry, slight minerality and a soft finish.

I love Jonathan Edwards Cabernet Franc, and all their reds...I am partial to reds so I did not try the whites....
