100% Cab Franc - 57 Cases Produced

Situated in the low, rolling hills just northwest of Napa, at the foot of Mt. Veeder is the 203-acre Hendry Ranch. Originally planted in the early 1800s, this ranch navigated phylloxera and Prohibition before becoming the thriving vineyard it is today. The section of the vineyard our Cabernet Franc is from enjoys cool foggy morning and afternoon breezes from San Pablo Bay. The days are characterized by warmth, while the nights are cooler. This mild climate allows this grape to express its Bordeaux & Loire roots. Our winemaker, Marc Gagnon, treated this wine in 100% New French Oak from the excellent French cooperages Darnajou (300L) and Taransaud (225L). Expect notes of Blackberry with a dense and pure body.
