Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"One hundred percent Cabernet Franc, one hundred percent stunning! Violet, blackberry, bay laurel and star anise dance above the rim of the glass, flashing the complexity of Cabernet Franc grown in RSV’s relatively cool, organically-farmed Vandal Vineyard in the upper Los Carneros region. We like to think of this vineyard as being the center of the “Right Bank” of Napa. Quintessential ripeness rings true at first sip, with lush black cherry, blackberry bramble and currant running alongside salted plum, Kalamata olive, cacao and a touch of black pepper. The 2017 vintage produced a high energy wine with fine, nervy tannins and bright, mouth watering acidity that support the generosity of fruit to make this wine ready to be enjoyed with dinner tonight or cellared for a rewarding future."
