Price:
$28.00 per bottle
Description:
Cabernet Franc, a significant component in many Bordeaux blends is a fruitier relation of Cabernet Sauvignon, less herbaceous and less tannic but more aromatic. Grown at the historic Hippard Ranch Estate Etiwanda (Est 1882), 2001 Cabernet Franc offers dark hues of red and purple with medium depth. Aromas of black currant and blackberries with hints of mint and caramel undertones. Full bodied with ripe round tannins and a spicy finish that goes the distance. Balanced complexities of berry fruit and oak make it a delicious and most interesting pour. Excellent with stronger vegetables such as eggplant and zucchini, rich cheeses, flavorful red meats and game including roasted hen and quail. Enjoy now or cellar through 2006.
