Our 2006 Cabernet Franc is a balanced composition of selected vineyard blocks yielding a supple and well-structured wine that has become a Liquid Assets Club favorite and exclusive. With deep rich color and aromas of black plum, pepper, anise, and violets, this vintage has classic hints of cassis and smooth dark chocolate. Rich and focused, with plenty of tannins and great length of acidity and fruit, this vintage is ready to enjoy now or cellar up to six years.

We recommend serving a wine with this much character and depth with braised short ribs, grilled hanger steak in red wine reduction sauce or a piece of dark chocolate.
