Wine Profile
Food Pairing Notes:
This wine pairs well with lamb dishes.
Production Notes:
Only 80 cases were made. This blend is 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Cabernet Franc. The fruit came from high-elevation vineyards in Fiddletown, which tend to produce low yields and concentrated fruit.
Tasting Notes:
In this Bordeaux blend, the Cabernet Franc lends a heady nose of violets, the Cabernet Sauvignon one of green pepper and red fruit. This wine has good levels of both acid and tannin and the fruit is fresh and bright. The finish lingers.
