Cabernet Franc, Columbia Valley

Cabernet Franc, Columbia Valley Wine Details
Price: $25.99 per bottle

Description: Cabernet Franc is a red grape variety usually employed in a blending role to uplift, with floral scents, the wines made from traditional Bordeaux grape varieties. It also is the sole variety allowed in the classified red wines from the Chinon region of the Loire Valley in France. In this wine the forward flavors of the Cabernet Franc are complemented by the softer, more lush flavors of Merlot, a better-known Bordeaux variety. Paired foods can range from lightly herbed and spiced dishes to those with much bolder flavors. This wine is a grand accompaniment for nearly all foods. Santé!
