    		Harbinger Winery (Port Angeles, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
    2005 Rapture View Label
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Cabernet Franc
  • Winemaker: Sara Gagnon
  • While traditionally utilized as a blending varietal, Cabernet Franc has the power to make believers in the power of One. Extended skin contact during a long cool fermentation has allowed this wine to be the fruit-forward powerhouse it deserves. Dark fruit and black pepper are nicely balanced with a tannic backbone that stays in check, allowing the well-rounded finish to linger nicely on the palette.
