Highlights

• Every five to ten years, a vintage comes along that stands out and we produce and bottle a Cabernet Franc
• Fruit is from the Oakville Station, which is part of the most historic vineyard in the Oakville nested appellation
• Artisan made with hand punch downs, gravity-fed movement and constant attention to detail
• Aging in a custom-made Leroi French oak barrel, this wine is a stellar example of small-lot wine

Description

Spoto Family Wines uses Cabernet Franc in all of our classic red style blends and Cabernet Sauvignons. However, every five to 10 years, a vintage comes along that stands out and we produce and bottle a Cabernet Franc. Our last vintage was 2006! The 2018 vintage was epic, so we made one barrel of Cabernet Franc and couldn’t pass up the chance to use it for Premiere Napa Valley. This wine has a splash of Merlot and Cabernet for balance and is barrel aged for 30 to 36 months in 100 percent new French oak.
