Chimney Rock Cabernet Franc Stags Leap District 2013

 Although an under-rated varietal, we firmly believe that this single vineyard Cabernet Franc is wine that is bold enough to stand on its own.
 

Description

Cabernet Franc has a prickly reputation. Its complex aromatics (black pepper, tobacco, and violets, among many other descriptors) are widely revered and uti-lized as an integral blending component. is varietal also consistently produces a beautiful Rosé. However, many wineries grumble at Cabernet Franc’s tendency to produce a lighter, more vegetal style of red wine.

At Chimney Rock, we have a quixotic affection for this tricky grape. With mind-ful vineyard care and ideal weather, our winemaking team firmly believes that Cabernet Franc can stand on its own as a delicious, intriguing wine. Enjoy this special bottling that celebrates this under-rated varietal.
