The 2014 Cabernet Franc №1 is made by Steve Matthaisson and comes from the volcanic, clay and sandy loam soils of vineyards in Los Carneros, Oak Knoll District and Yountville. The aromas are extreamly attractive, with lovely complexity, showing beautiful ripe blackberries, cassis, plum, dried herbs, fresh tobacco leaf and tree bark all coming together. A restrained yet beautifully polished Cabernet Franc, which is made in an old-world style with delicious black and red fruits along with a notable earthy green quality that lingers into the long, precise finish. This is a youthful wine that will continue to develop beautifully in the cellar for many years.
