Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Black cherry, chocolate anti leather notes with dark plum and blackberry flavors.
Vineyard Notes
The 8-acre vineyard, bordered by the Silverado Trail and Zinfandel Lane, forms the appellation's northeast corner. Environmentally sens1t1ve farming methods ensure that the property's creek, a major passageway for steelhead trout and chinook salmon, maintains its healthy, pnstme condition, unsullied by harmful chemical fertilizers. The vineyard's Pleasanton Series soil produces fruit characterized by earthy aromas, flavors of black currant and the ideal tannin structure necessary for extended aging. Hand-selected lots were harvested to produce only 300 cases of individually numbered bottles of this outstanding vintage.
Production Notes
Our 2013 Franklin Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from our family's Franklin estate vineyard in Napa Valley's Rutherford appellation. Of the valley's 16 AV/\s (American Viticultural Area), this region's terroir has an unsurpassed reputation for producing world-class Cabernets.
Winemaker Notes
The wintt is luscious and full-bodied with fine-grained tannins. It is ready- to be enjoyed now but, with thoughtful storage, will continue to evolve in flavor and character through 2031.
Food Pairing Notes
Grilled lamb, eggplant lasagna, or flourless chocolate cake
