Varietal Composition: 100% Estate fruit - 97% Cabernet Franc, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon
At Duckhorn Vineyards, we have been working with Napa Valley Cabernet Franc for over a quarter century, exploring its ability to add elegance and complexity to our blends and its capacity to produce stand-alone wines of stature and sophistication. Incorporating valley floor fruit with an emphasis on older vines, low yields and warmer vineyards, our Cabernet Franc offers beautiful varietal notes of dark cherry, raspberry and red currant with hints of tobacco leaf and graphite.

Winemaker Notes
Aromatic layers of blackberry, sweet jam, and violet rise alongside notes of roasted coffee, cocoa powder, and vanilla, with subtle bramble adding depth. The palate is dense and richly textured, offering complex layers supported by well-structured tannins that provide an age-worthy foundation. Sweet, plush fruit carries through the mid-palate, while buoyant acidity lifts the finish, leaving a long and inviting impression.
