2021 Cabernet Franc - Shenandoah Valley
2021 Cabernet Franc - Shenandoah Valley
Complex and savory nose with bell pepper that transitions into jammy strawberry, redcurrant, black cherry kirsch and fig. White pepper and eucalyptus lead into fresh oregano and thyme, mushroom and leather. Baking spice and vanilla are layered throughout. On the palate, the wine is a well balanced medium wine with a pleasing acidity. Milder tannins lean out the body, but still carry the wine into a lengthy finish. This wine lends itself to a glass enjoyed on its own or would pair well with charcuterie or lighter mediterranean appetizers.
