Merriam 2008 Windacre Vineyard Estate Cabernet Franc (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / Windacre Vineyard Estate
Variety: Cabernet Franc California
Winery: Merriam / Russian River Valley

Merriam is concentrating on Cabernet Franc from various appellations, with excellent results. This Russian River bottling is terrific for drinking now. It’s spicy and rich in red cherry jam, cherry liqueur and smoky sandalwood flavors that finish long and sweet. It would be great with Chinese-style roast pork.
