Northstar 2004 Cabernet Franc (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

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

Quite roasty-toasty, this is heavily scented with coffee and smoke. Smooth tannins surround plummy fruit, and there is enough concentration for a good, long finish. The blend includes 8% Cab Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot and a splash of Merlot. Just 150 cases were made.
