Cab Franc

The 2022 Cabernet Franc envelops you in all the trademark aromas and flavors of our signature red grape, with an added level of concentration due to the drought conditions of 2022. This wine is bold and balanced, providing medium body and layered tannin while still below 13% ABV. Cabernet Franc is a great grape here in the Finger Lakes! This very lightly oaked Cabernet Franc has nice medium body with beautiful tannins and notes of ripe blackberries, subtle spice, and vanilla with a beautiful finish. This wine is perfect with grilled meats and vegetables, your favorite pasta and cheese dish, or even a wood-fired pizza.
