Cabernet franc 2007

Awards, Ratings and ReviewsRecommended, Wine Press Northwest Winemaker's Tasting NotesFruit sources for this wine were our estate Fault Line Vineyards in the Umpqua Valley and Pheasant Hill Vineyard in the Rogue Valley. Our estate supplies spicy perfumed aromatics, streaks of dried herbs with fine grained tannins, and a big mouthfeel. Pheasant Hill contributes ripe blueberries, lavender, and sweet vanilla tones. This wine will benefit from cellaring. Pairings include pork roast with a walnut-parmesan crust and savory stuffing. Technical NotesFruit Source:
