Vanderbilt 2012 Reserve Cabernet Franc (Dry Creek Valley)

Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Cabernet Franc California
Winery: Vanderbilt / Dry Creek Valley

Vanilla wraps itself around cherry, cranberry and pomegranate to open with a ripe bang before this wine delves into darker tar notes and big tannins. Powerfully dense and concentrated, it maintains an herbal overtone that suggest further potential over time.
