Single-vineyard Napa Cab Franc from vines planted in 1978. Big Ranch in the Oak Knoll District is home to some of the oldest Cabernet Franc vines in Napa Valley, originally planted in 1978 and still tended by the McKenzie-Mueller family that put them in the ground. T. Berkley — Taylor Berkley Boydstun's tightly focused Loire-inspired label — gets a small allocation and treats it with a deliberate hand: native-yeast fermentation, élevage split across amphora, concrete egg, stainless steel and French oak to keep the site, not the cellar, in front. The result captures what old Cab Franc vines on a cooler Napa bench can do — savory and structured, with leafy lift, real density, and the kind of stretch that rewards cellaring.

"Enthused, flavorful, this Cabernet Franc brings the warmth of Napa in harmony with the aromas and trimmer frame of the variety. Tobacco, dark and generous fruits, and accents of mixed herbs linger long through the finish." —Elaine Chukan Brown

Roast lamb with herbs, duck breast with cherry reduction, beef tenderloin with mushrooms, grilled venison, aged hard cheeses, or hold 5–10 years and pour with game.

Dark plum, black cherry, blackcurrant, tobacco leaf, dried herbs, graphite, and a savory bay-leaf lift. Medium to full-bodied, fresh acidity, chalky-firm tannins, with old-vine density and length.
