is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
From the heart of Napa Valley, this Cabernet Franc expresses both the power and elegance that the region can bring to this varietal. Sourced from the historic Detert family vineyard, the wine captures the essence of Napa's unique terroir—sun-drenched days balanced by cool nights, creating a wine that is both rich and nuanced.
Bright aromas of blackberries, plums, and currants give way to herbal notes of sage and a touch of tobacco, adding complexity and depth to the nose. On the palate, the fruit is ripe and vibrant, yet the tannins are soft and velvety, providing a refined structure. Subtle hints of spice and earthy minerality linger, rounding out the wine’s character and giving it a long, smooth finish.
This Cabernet Franc is perfect for those who appreciate a wine that combines bold fruit flavors with an elegant, sophisticated edge. Whether paired with roasted meats, grilled vegetables, or a selection of fine cheeses, it is versatile enough to complement a wide range of dishes. Ready to enjoy now, yet with the structure to age gracefully for years to come, this wine is a beautiful example of Napa’s take on this classic varietal.
