Consistently one of the state's most unique bottles of Cabernet Franc - no one truly makes one like it - the 2009 vintage lives up to this history. It's moderately aromatic with floral notes, herbs, and dry chocolate. The palate is soft, sumptuous, and velvety with the oak and alcohol dialed way back, restrained fruit flavors and a finish that glides into the distance. 100% Cabernet Franc. Chinook Estate, Boushey, Carter Farm, and Desert Hills vineyards. Aged in neutral French oak. 13% alcohol.
