Buttonwood Cabernet Franc

Buttonwood Cabernet Franc Wine Details
Price: $18.00 per bottle

Description: Cabernet Franc is Buttonwood's workhorse grape. We use it primarily to blend with our merlot because it adds dimension and structure. It's also one of three components in Trevin, our Bordeaux-style blend. But we also bottle cabernet franc as a varietal wine. Its unique flavors and medium-weight body offer an intriguing alternative at mealtime. Enticing aromas of dark chocolate cherry add depth and complexity to classic herbal "franc" aromas. Juicy raspberry flavors follow on the palate before resolving in a dusky, smoky finish.
