Herbal aromatics give way to cherry cola, strawberries, watermelon, and a crushed gravel minerality on the palate. Featuring 85% Cabernet Franc from our neighbors around Seneca Lake and 15% Blaüfrankisch from our home farm, the wine is vibrant in color and flavor. Lively acidity balances the fruit, making it a perfect complement for food, like a goat cheese crostini topped with a berry compote.
