The parent grape to Cabernet Sauvignon is grown virtually throughout the winemaking world and is referred to by some as the king of wines. Like the Pinot Noir, our Cabernet Franc is aged in French and American Oak for a period of eight to nine months. The very qualities that make our Cabernet great - power, concentration, and richness have harmonized in the bottle with the pleasing aromas and flavors of blackcurrant and blackberry. This wine is also given tension by the slight echoes of green pepper with some overlay of soft herbal qualities. When matched with high quality meats, wild game, or cheese, Cabernet Franc offers unparalleled enjoyment and is often an exquisite partner on the table.

Tasting notes

The Cabernet Franc coming from this idealistic soilfor this grape in Upstate NY is another winner. Purple/ruby tones in the glass and medium on the rim. Bouquet of ripe cherries and bubblegum aromas. Flavors of ripe black cherries show on this light and fruit focused wine. Displays tobacco and black pepper undercurrents on the finish. DYNAMITE EFFORT.
