Cabernet Franc - "Moonlight"

Cabernet Franc - "Moonlight" Wine Details
Price: $22.00 per bottle

Description: The color is a beautifully dark garnet and the nose is an amazing array of black fruits, currants, spice, oak and leather. The mouthfeel is full and rich loaded with flavors of black cherry and blackberry, allspice and leather framed by firm tannins and oak. This wine will age well for several years. This wine has been blended with small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for added complexity. It was aged a full three years in primarily French oak of which 50% was new. This is our first Cabernet Franc bottling since the 1995 vintage and is a natural to be paired with smoked duck, frilled lamb or pasta. Decant for several hours prior to trying this wine.
