"Our newest release of Cabernet Franc makes a strong case that the 2010 vintage was perhaps the best ever for this variety. Black cherry, red raspberry, and dark currant aromas leap out of the glass. Upon contemplation, nutmeg, cloves and other warm spices emerge yet even more exotic notes such as cocoa, fennel or dark bittersweet chocolate may elude the palate until barely a sip remains. This is a luscious and supple red with the extraction and power to age for many years. The wine is a blend from three different vineyard sites fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for ten months in neutral French oak barrels and stainless steel. A powerful example of what this special grape can do on the North Fork."
