About the Wine

A pristine medium-ruby color, the nose offers a beautiful example of Cab Franc’s savory, earthy dried herbs, roasted red pepper and graphite on top of bright red fruits.The palate reveals a medium-full body that dances between all the spicy aromas andfresh strawberry and red raspberry, celebrating California’s famous fruit all deftly heldby lively acidity and gentle tannins.

Blend: 95% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot, & 2% addition of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Cabernet Franc is a bit more versatile in its food pairing than its brooding cousin Cabernet Sauvignon. The combination of acidity and just the right amount of tannin allow a broad range of wonderful complements such as roast chicken, duck, sausage, grilled vegetables and even smoky barbecue or tomato-based red sauces.
