Palate
Medium-bodied, with lively fruit featuring raspberry & black cherry aromas and a smooth, supple finish.
Growing Conditions
The 2020 growing season had consistent sunlight and low rain totals that led to wonderful fruit development, as we’ve observed during the first month of harvest. The drought-like conditions, however, did lead to yields about 20% below average.

March 1, 2022. Cork closure. Limited quantities, Library Wine. Club membership required for access.
Aging
This vintage of Cabernet Franc was fermented on the skins in small fermenters until dry; then barrel aged for 12 months in a combination of 60 gallon American & French oak barrels.
