2006 Cabernet Franc

The Cabernet Franc grape has found a home in Virginia and does especially well in the Piedmont terroir of Northern Virginia. This Bordeaux grape is fruitier and lighter than its offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon. Our Cabernet Franc is showing typical dark cherry and raspberry fruit flavors balanced with hints of spicy black pepper and smoky cedar. With its mild tannins, this is excellent to pair with grilled beef and stronger tasting vegetables such as roasted eggplant.
