Cabernet Franc

Cabernet Franc Wine Details
Price: $32.00 per bottle

Description: This attractive, purple-garnet wine "just shines in the glass." It had a fine nose of blackberries, eucalyptus, earth and smoky oak. The wine delivered full, fruity flavors of cherries and cassis, mingled with pepper, mint and cedar. Supple and balanced, the fruit stayed for the finale, wrapped in a curtain call of currants and tannins. Food seems to draw out the wines underlying mintiness, so a roasted lag of lamb seems to be an obvious choice.
