2022 Cabernet Franc
Napa Valley
Your single barrel selection Cabernet Franc comes from the Bear Canyon vineyard at our Mayacamas estate, 1,200 feet above the Napa Valley floor and the fog line. This organically farmed vineyard has well-drained soils, northwest sun exposure and a unique parcel with a quadrilateral cane trellis system. We fermented this block separately and the result is an incredibly distinctive, full-bodied Cabernet Franc with dense dark claret color, supple tannins and an elegant finish.
