Winemaker Notes
Made from premium grapes from our estate vineyard (65%) and the Sundial vineyard on the Black Sage Bench, south of Oliver. This Cabernet Franc was made to reflect the local terroir and the distinct varietal characteristics. The result is a wine with a high concentration of aromas, yet elegant and smooth. The wine was aged in French & American oak barrels for 12 months prior to bottling. After bottling it has aged another 12 months in bottle prior to release.
Other Notes
Wine is peaking and should be consumed soon
