This Cabernet Franc is produced solely from the JAX Vineyard in Calistoga. The alluvial loam soil, a summer of ideal northern Calistoga sun and 21 months of patience in the cellar. We knew that we would be doing Cab Franc lovers and ourselves an injustice to not bottle this wine on it's own. Just 3 barrels (72 cases) of this lovely, drinkable, yet age-worthy wine to go around.
This 100% Cabernet Franc displays a saturated, deep purple color. The aromas of summer berries and violets jump out of the glass when swirled. On the palate you will find concentrated flavors of dark cherries, currant and fresh herbs. This supple, elegant, and balanced wine is brilliant now and will continue to mature for 7-10 years.
