Davis Estates
Napa Valley Cabernet Franc
Napa Valley, California, USA
On the nose, nice ripe floral fruits of; black plum, blackberries, dark cherries, creamy raspberries, plum, rich dark soil, soft minerals, limestone, touch of black licorice and very dark, fresh and withering florals.
The body is medium and juicy. The fruits ripe & bright; blackberries, black raspberries, black plum, dark cherries with just a small hint of strawberries. Dark rich soil, soft volcanic minerals, black licorice, used leather, limestone, crushed dry rock, raspberry cola and dark, fresh, red florals with violets. Acidity is beautiful. The finish is lighter but busting with fruit and florals. Great balance and two minute finish.
Photos of; the hallway in their cellars, the food paring with their 15 Cabernet Franc - Falafel with Smoked Jalapeño-Tahini Sauce Chives, Cilantro, Parsley, the Monet painting that hangs in their tasting room and tasting lounge in their tasting room.

Light floral and blue fruit hints on the nose. Intense tastes of blueberries, dark cherries, chocolate, and licorice. Very nicely integrated with great acidity and fruit with an interesting tannic backbone.
