2021 Reserve Cabernet Franc
The best of both worlds — a delicate Saumur-like nose and a potent, California-styled body.
100%Cabernet Franc
Retail: $95.00
alc 14%
100% Cabernet Franc from Portico Hills Vineyard, a small 1.5-acre own-rooted block on steep hillsides just west of Los Alamos in Santa Barbara County. Its sandy-loam soils veined with limestone give the drainage and heat retention that ripen Cabernet Franc, yielding a delicate Saumur-like nose over a potent, California-styled body.
