WineDiva's Review

Concentrated, supple expressive.
Made from River Stone's South Okanagan estate vines, this Cabernet Franc is consistently concentrated and ripe. Expect aromas of currents, black raspberry and cherries, leather and spice, sarsaparilla, mocha, crushed violets and molasses. It is supple and intensely flavoured; purple fruits and velvety mocha dominate the palate. It has great balance and structure with a sweetly spiced finish.


 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Barbeque, Good First Impressions
