12 Bottles Cakebread Cellars Cabernet Franc Napa Valley 2022 750ml

Cabernet Franc from Napa Valley, California Notes from the Winemaker Our classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon offers rich layers of ripe blackberry, plum, and boysenberry, enhanced by subtle hints of dark chocolate, baking spices, and toasty oak. The dark fruit profile is beautifully balanced by bright acidity and velvety tannins, delivering a full-bodied yet refined and elegant structure. The 2022 season was mild and even, with summer days characterized by moderate heat and steady ripening. Drought conditions persisted across Napa Valley, which allowed vines to naturally control their vigor and yields – resulting in concentrated flavors and aromas. Blend: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot, 2% Syrah, 1% Cabernet Franc Aging: Aged 17 months in 52% new French oak, 48% neutral French oak
