2005 Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc

Our 2005 Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc is an elegant, food-friendly wine with great balance, mouthfeel and flavors. This wine opens with black cherry and plum aromas with hints of vanilla, leather and spice; then bright cherry and raspberry fl avors take over, adding complexity to an already sophisticated wine. Supple tannins and balanced acidity make this a versatile, food-friendly wine.
