What is this wine?
Keenan’s Cabernet Franc 2021 is a small-production red from the winery’s Spring Mountain Estate on Napa Valley’s western slopes. Founded in the 1970s, Robert Keenan Winery is renowned for mountain-grown wines that combine richness with structure and freshness. The 2021 Cabernet Franc is sourced primarily from estate vineyards at elevations of 1,700–2,000 feet, where cooler temperatures and rocky soils yield intensely aromatic, finely balanced fruit. Aged in French oak (roughly one-third new), this is a polished yet varietally pure expression of Cabernet Franc.

Why get this wine?
Keenan consistently ranks among Napa’s best values in mountain reds, and their Cabernet Franc is a standout for its elegance and restraint. The 2021 vintage was outstanding—low yields produced concentrated, beautifully structured wines with natural energy. This bottle offers the perfume and savory complexity of Cabernet Franc with the power and longevity of Napa fruit.

What does this wine taste like?
Fragrant red and black cherry, cassis, and violet unfold with hints of graphite, herbs, and cedar. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with fine tannins, lively acidity, and a long, spicy, mineral-edged finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Enjoy now for its lift and freshness, or cellar through 2035 for added depth. Decant 45 minutes before serving. Excellent with lamb, grilled vegetables, or roast duck.

"The 2021 Cabernet Franc Upper Bowl Vineyard is one of the most distinctive wines in the Keenan range. Franc aromatics and mountain tension meld together to yield a wine of tremendous nuance and character. Orange peel, white pepper, bright red-toned fruit and dried rose petal are some of the many notes that come alive in the glass. What a pretty and expressive wine this is." -Antonio Galloni
