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
Overlapping flavors of wild blackberry, cassis and vanilla are infused with a hint of toasted barrel contributing a little spice. The pigment is dark almost mystical, and the tannins are bold allowing for a lengthy finish.
