2014 Cabernet Franc

With a purplish-red hue, our Cabernet Franc is both sophisticated and rustic. The bouquet flaunts  fresh raspberry jam, tart cherry, cranberry, fennel, allspice, nutmeg, and espresso. Its palate is lively on the tongue, making it an excellent wine for pairing with a meal. Soft tannins meld with a medium body and a lingering pomegranate and raspberry seed finish.

Varietals

89% Cabernet Franc (single vineyard) and 11% Merlot (single vineyard)

Region

North Fork of Long Island, NY

Process

The grapes were fermented partly in stainless steel tanks, and partly in an egg-shaped tank to promote soft tannins and a ripe fruit flavor profile. Manual punch-downs were conducted three times a day. The new wine was raised in second- and third-year French oak barrels, but only for nine months in order to accentuate and preserve its fruit-forward nature.

Pairing Notes

The balance of fruit and acidity in this wine lends itself to a wide variety of food pairings – from coq au vin, seared tuna, and ratatouille, to turkey and ham, hard cheeses, autumn root vegetables, and wood-red pizzas.
