2019 Broken Earth Cabernet Franc
WINE DESCRIPTION
It is quite firm on the palate but the masses of spicy fruit and balancing oak complement the grip nicely. The color is deep and intense reflecting the wine’s brooding nature. Bright natural acidity will ensure this wine ages for many years.
ABOUT CABERNET FRANC
Cabernet Franc is a significant Bordeaux variety that figures prominently in the “right bank” styles
of Pomerol and St. Emilion although it is rarely released there on its own. Paso Robles’ climate has the ability to get it ripe on its own and we are confident, and excited, to release this 100% varietal.
VINTAGE NOTES
This crop of Cabernet Franc from our estate vineyards was a much anticipated one. It is a very robust style that retains elegance and finesse. It is quite firm on the palate but the masses of spicy fruit and balancing oak compliment the grip nicely. The color is deep and intense reflecting the wine’s brooding nature. Bright natural acidity will ensure this wine ages for many years.
