93% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot
Spicy forest floor aromas mingle with traces of ripe red fruit, minerality, loamy soil and leather. On the palate, the zesty cedar texture weaves through luscious Bing cherry, Santa Rosa plum, bright red currant, dried strawberry and fresh roasted coffee. The creamy mouthfeel offers hints of shaved dark chocolate, caramel, pomegranate and enticing white floral notes as the flavors merge into the finish. Fine-grained oak and supple tannins frame the wine, providing structure and depth.
The perfect wine to pair with a classic osso bucco, or roasted quail with cherry and red wine sauce.
