2022 VGS Cabernet Franc MOUNT VEEDER

Red fruits like raspberries, cranberries, and pomegranate shine in this wine. Cigar box, fresh basil, thyme, cinnamon, graphite, licorice, and allspice are also part of the enchanting nose. Decanting will allow for the delicate floral aromas of violets and roses to tease and tempt. With air the wine really opens to reveal its true character and unmistakably, THIS is a mountain grown Cabernet Franc!

The 2022 VGS Cabernet Franc has a wonderful ripe and round mouthfeel with vibrant acidity and firm, but not aggressive tannins.This wine will be beautiful to taste as it ages. The future is bright for this baby!
