Winemaker’s Notes:
Our fourth Cabernet Franc release. This medium-bodied wine exhibits an aromatic nose of dark fruits. Twelve months of aging in French oak barrels has harmonized fruit, acidity, and tannins into a well-rounded taste with added depth and complexity.

Pairs well with pasta, veal and grilled vegetables.

Hand-harvested on October 6th, 2007

    Another very good wine from the Muscedere’s.

    For those who do not like those big red wines, this one is for you. Nice herbaceous quality to it.

    The nose has hints of cherry however it is a bit milder than other local Cab Francs.

    This is a medium bodied red, with nice fruit forward taste. Cherry, leather, and herbaceous spice. Tannins are mild and found near the end making for a nice balance here.

    Aged 10 months in the barrel I thought this one could have been aged in oak just a little bit longer. I look forward to that oaky taste a Cab Franc and didn’t pick up a lot of it in this one.

    Paired this wine with some BBQ’ed burgers which worked extremely well. This is an excellent BBQ wine.

    Priced at $16, makes this one a good value and one you should put on your buy list when visiting the winery.
