2005 ONE OF FOURTEEN - Napa Valley Cabernet Franc, 750ml

ONE OF FOURTEEN
2005 Cabernet Franc
Napa Valley

Winemaker's Notes:
In 2005 we had a little too much Cabernet Franc for our final blend of Fourteen. We chose to age this wine a bit longer and let it "grow up" to become a rock star. For most winemakers the Cab Franc grapes can be very herbal and tough to make a balanced California style wine from....not this one. Time has been on our side and smoothed this monster out and it is drinking beautifully. To ensure the warm fuzziness, we added some of our unique Napa Valley Premier auction lot wine into the blend as a secret weapon. That barrel sold for a fortune at the auction and you will see how well it adds to the overall insensity of the Cab Franc.
