IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

VINTAGE
2015 saw early bud break, giving way to a cool spring and a generally even and
warm growing season. Temperature surges during the final weeks of growth
expedited harvest, making it one of the earliest harvests Napa Valley has ever had. With the drought enduring as a serious issue facing California, 2015 saw lower than expected yields. Though there are challenges that come with low yields, there is also the benefit of a higher concentration of flavor in each grape. 2015 wines are showing to be increasingly complex with wonderful, fruit forward aromatics and stunning depth of flavor.

TASTING
This fragrant Cabernet Franc offers aromas of Marionberry pie, baking spice and white pepper with complementing notes of rose hip and tea leaves. On the palate, flavors of bing cherry, cacao nibs and vanilla beanmingle with light herbal notes. Supple tannins and a soft mouth feel wrap up into a complex and elegant wine. Delicious now, this 2015 Cabernet Franc will continue to mature for the next 5- 7 years.
