2022 Cabernet Franc

Winemaking Notes: This wine showcases the elegance and complexity of this beloved varietal. The bouquet unfolds with notes of black cherry and raspberry. Intertwined are hints of vanilla and floral notes. On the palate, juicy red plum, dried cranberry, and a sprinkling of peppercorn are framed by balanced tannins and a fresh acidity uplifts the flavors. This wine is suitable to drink now and also demonstrates the potential to evolve and mature gracefully over time.
