Willis Hall
2004 Cabernet Franc
View Label
Appellation: Columbia Valley
Blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot,
Willis Hall
(Marysville, WA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: John Bell
Cabernet Franc is a red grape variety usually employed in a blending role to uplift, with floral scents, the wines made from traditional Bordeaux grape varieties. It also is the sole variety allowed in the classified red wines from the Chinon region of the Loire Valley in France. In this wine the forward flavors of the Cabernet Franc are complemented by the softer, more lush flavors of Merlot, a better-known Bordeaux variety. Paired foods can range from lightly herbed and spiced dishes to those ...

Chatter Creek Winery
2008 Cabernet Franc
Appellation: Columbia Valley
Blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon,
Chatter Creek Winery
(Woodinville, WA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Gordon Rawson
Cabernet Franc 84%, Cabernet Sauvignon 16%. On the nose, aromas of blueberry, cranberry, cassis, and peppers. The mouth feel is clean with ripe and youthful pie-cherry and red berry flavors that are unencumbered by oak. The tannins are well managed, and the finish is fruity, velvety and lingers for quite some time.

Basel Cellars Estate Winery
2003 Walla Walla Valley Red Wine
Appellation: Walla Walla Valley
Blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot,
Basel Cellars Estate Winery
(Walla Walla, WA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
The fragrant nose is reminiscent of sweet plums, raspberry tea, molasses, cinnamon, and mocha. The rich, concentrated mouth has flavors of ripe chocolate-covered cherries and blackberries, and finishes with beautifully integrated tannins. It should easily age for ten years, and perhaps longer.
Acclaim: 89 points Steve Tanzers International Wine Cellar Dec 2005"Bright, full ruby-red. Currant, cherry, raspberry, nutty oak and a whiff of tea on the nose. Juicy, firm and penetrating, with distinctly dry flavors of bitter cherry, cherry skin, fresh herbs, licorice and dark chocolate. Showing its cabernet franc side today. This has depth, tannic structure and good tang, especially for a wine with close to 15% alcohol." ST

Loaded with blueberries, bing cherries, strawberry, chocolate and anise. Subtle notes of dried herbs and cedar combined with a hint of violets and vanilla bean give many layers to this blend. Very juicy mid palate with firm tannin, good acidity, and a toasty finish.

This is the most delicious, beautifully textured, expressive vintage of our Champoux Cab Franc to date. The alcohol has dropped from 14.6 or 14.7 to 14.1 resulting in a more graceful, more flavorful wine. Dense purple-black with subtle aromas of smoked meat and earthiness that give way to violet and rose petal notes. The mouth feel is silky and plush up front with rich tannins in the mid-palate and finish. The flavors of black cherry, fig, dark roast coffee and anis are beautifully integrated. W...

Weinbau Vineyard is owned and operated by the Sagemoor Vineyards Group founded in 1968. This Cabernet Franc has great intensity and fruit character. Enjoy this wine as blueberry pie filling envelops your senses then finishes with a dash of baking spice.

Winemaker: Trey Busch
Many of you know my love of Cabernet Franc and fortunately, so do my partners. in our opinion, it is the most underrated grape in Washington State. For this blend, it brings those amazing herbal, spicy notes to the nose, reminiscent of the pipe tobacco my grandfather used to smoke. The Sangoivese offers up some distinctive strawberry notes and the Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine its structure and length and intensifies the red fruit profile. We bottled this under screwcap as well, and think it...
