Kelham Vineyards Oakville Napa Cabernet Franc 2016
Shaped by time and finesse, the 2016 Cabernet Franc shows a dark, polished profile with fine, mineral-driven structure. Supple layers of red plum and wild raspberry are accented by violet, crushed herb, and subtle baking spice. Medium-bodied with refined tannins and bright acidity, the finish brings notes of dark cherry, tobacco, and savory earth. Crafted by family-owned Kelham Vineyards in Napa Valley.
