NV ROSE" of Cabernet Franc - Columbia Valley

NV ROSE" of Cabernet Franc - Columbia Valley Wine Details
Price: $15.99 per bottle

Description: This Estate Rose' from Vin du Lac bursts with fruit intensity, yet possesses depth & structure. 25% 2004 Estate Sangiovese was barrel fermented after early pressing for tannin retention & barrel character. 75% 2005 Estate Cabernet Franc was given 24 hours skin contact & then steel fermented to maximize strawberry & rhubarb flavors. The intense fruit herbaceousness of the Cabernet Franc combines with the earth, tobacco & subtle smoke flavors of the Sangiovese to create a wine that is light & refreshing, yet rich, structured & hearty enough to serve as an excellent food & holiday wine.
