Yorkville Cellars 1997 Cabernet Franc (Yorkville Highlands)

Country: US / California
Variety: Cabernet Franc
Winery: Yorkville Cellars /

This Bordeaux variety more often than not produces a light, fruity wine of charm and early drinkability. Here, the sour cherry fruit is framed in dry, dusty tannins and soft acids. There’s an elegance and spicy aftertaste that are very nice. —S.H.
