Merry Cellars 2006 Cabernet Franc (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Franc Washington
Winery: Merry Cellars / Walla Walla Valley (WA)

This tight and tannic Cab Franc tastes of cranberry, wild raspberry and green coffee bean. It’s a crisp evocation of not overly ripe varietal character, leaning toward the Loire Valley versions of the grape rather than anything distinctly New World.
