2018 ESTATE CABERNET FRANC LIBRARY WINE

This Cabernet Franc is an incredible wine that showcases how well this varietal grows on DAOU Mountain. Aged for 20 months in 100% new French Oak, this wine is intense yet elegant and fresh. Deep purple-black in color, it bursts with aromas of cassis, violets, lilacs, blueberries while incorporating the classic varietal aromas of graphite, ash, cedar. With a full-bodied structure, this wine is built to last for years to come in the bottle. While approachable upon release, it will reward you greatly if aged for 5-7 years before being consumed with the potential to age for decades.
