Elegant yet rich, structured yet smooth, this gorgeous, classically styled wine is made in honor of Frank Family founder, Richard Harvey Frank. It offers deep, dark cherry and cocoa aromas followed by enticing oak toast, anise, and cedar on the supple, never-ending palate.
Sourced exclusively from Frank Family’s Lewis Vineyard in Carneros. Here, the predominant maritime influence of the Pacific Ocean and San Pablo Bay creates the cool temperature, fog, and wind that make our vineyard site ideally suited for growing cool climate varieties.
20 months in 50% new French oak barrels and 50% once-filled French oak barrels.
Pairs well with beef, lamb, deer, venison, mature cheese, and poultry dishes.
