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.

Love it! The initial smell is of dark chocolate, dirt, oak, boysenberry, with a leathery touch that reminds me of opening an old leather bound book. The taste is oaky and that of wet earth with a hint of dark chocolate covered cherry's. Delicious!
