Murrieta’s Well’s Cabernet Franc was fermented in stainless steel tanks with pneumatage twice daily, then aged for 19 months in 60% new French oak and 40% used French oak barrels. Refined, focused, and medium-bodied with suave tannins and expressive black currant fruit, it carries notes of mocha and blood orange-like acidity on a finish marked by dried wild herbs and rich baking spices. There’s a lovely sweetness to the bold fruit, balanced by savory herbal tones and subtle tobacco character.
