2016 Cabernet Franc Napa Valley Stagecoach Vineyard

Darjean Jones 2016 Cabernet Franc is our fourth vineyard designate bottling from Stagecoach Vineyard. This rocky, mountainous terrain resulted in a medium-bodied wine bold with concentrated flavors of blackberry, cocoa and tart red cherry. Refined tannins, an edgy herbaceous note and high acid make this wine the perfect paring for a wide variety of foods.
