A blend of 92% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 3% Petit Verdot, sourced from two blocks in the White Cat Vineyard (Clones 01 and 05), and aged for 18 months in French oak (45% new). This wine leaps from the glass—even without a swirl—with expressive notes of dried straw and Livermore Valley prairie grass, interwoven with black currant and subtle blueberry. Polished, silky tannins flood the mid-palate, where blue and black fruit show both weight and elegance. The finish is savory and scented, with building tannins, cocoa powder, and pressed wildflowers. There’s density, freshness, and energy throughout this expertly crafted Cabernet Franc.
