    		Maryhill Winery
    2008 Proprietor's Reserve Cabernet Franc View Label
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley Maryhill Winery (Goldendale, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Aromas of cooking spices, smoked meats and simmering holiday fruit pies warm your senses. On the palate a welcome graceful approach of fruit melds with coffee, vanilla, cherry, plum, a hint of oak and is followed with a pleasant lingering finish.

    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 ... ...read more

    		Sorensen Cellars
    2004 Rosé of Cabernet Franc
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Rosé of Cabernet Franc Sorensen Cellars (Port Townsend, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • A new wine for Sorensen, a beautiful light copper color with hints of fresh strawberry jam on the nose. Again, I find creamy strawberry characters on the palate. A dry rose with a hint of sweetness. This is a great picnic wine to serve throughout the summer.

    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.

    		Stemilt Creek Winery
    2003 Cabernet Franc View Label
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley Stemilt Creek Winery (Wenatchee, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Jan Mathison
  • Refined dusty cherry fruit is combined with pleasant notes of tobacco and thyme. The wine dances in the mouth a bit due to some acidity but is kept in check (can't have too much fun) by strong tannins. The wine would pair well with an herbal steak cooked on the grill.

    2004 Estate Cabernet Franc View Label
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley Stemilt Creek Winery (Wenatchee, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Jan Mathison
  • Taut and elegant. As it unwinds aromas, the flavors start revealing themselves. It's a bit shy in the nose but the palate shows sweet cherry, spicy tobacco, olive and flowery notes. A hint of chocolate also peeks through mid-palate to the long finish.

    		Harbinger Winery
    2005 Rapture View Label
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Cabernet Franc Harbinger Winery (Port Angeles, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • 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.

This wine exhibits a rich, supple mouth feel of sweet black fruits, coffee, and pencil shavings, and is complimented by delicate, mouth-filling tannins. This selection will continue to evolve and open over the next 10-15 years, and will pair nicely with a rich red meat or Portobello mushroom
