The 2016 Sunbasket Vineyard ‘Helios’ Cabernet Franc is another beautiful showing from Cathy Corison in this vintage. This gorgeous wine begins with inviting aromas of fresh red currants and ripe raspberries that are joined together with accents of spring flowers, graphite, tobacco and gravelly minerals all taking shape. Elegant, pure and precise, this medium-bodied Cabernet Franc continues to impress with its striking balance and finesse all the way through the graceful finish. While this will be accessible early on, it will also continue to flourish in the cellar over the course of the next decade.
