2020 Cabernet Franc Moon Mountain District
Wine Notes Print tech sheet
Our Cabernet Franc from the Moon Mountain District is known for its elegance and complexity. We’re fortunate to have exclusive access to some of the largest Cabernet Franc plantings in the region, all of which are farmed organically and produce grapes worthy of a single-varietal wine. The 2020 vintage is full-bodied and masterfully balanced by bright acidity and refined tannins, while showcasing vibrant fruit and enticing hints of spice imparted from French oak barrel aging. The region's elevation and volcanic soils impart a distinct freshness and depth, making this Cabernet Franc particularly expressive and memorable.
