Browse by Grape - Cabernet Franc
One of the lesser known Bordeaux red varieties although its more prominent in the Loire Valley. Despite this the legendary name of Château Cheval Blanc has occasionally had a 100% Cabernet Franc make up in its wine. Normally blended in Bordeaux but often bottled undiluted in the Loire, this rich red grape should produce a wine with a raspberry character with more apparent fruitiness than its more Famous Cabernet Sauvignon cousin. Now planted across the wine globe, with worthy mentions going to New Zealand and Australia.

Cabernet Franc, Merlot
Body: d - Medium to Full
Blended from 70% merlot and 30% cabernet franc grapes, this wine is then aged in French oak barrels, a third of which are new each year. Deep colored wine with fine tannins from the merlot and more powerful tannins from the aromatic cabernet. Some of this wine stayed in the vats for four weeks. The first tastings of this vintage are very promising

The 2006 Abadal Seleccio is composed of 40% Cabernet Franc, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Syrah aged for 14 months in French oak. A saturated purple color, it reveals an already complex nose of sandalwood, scorched earth, espresso, incense, spice box, black cherry, and black currant. In the mouth this buxom effort is dense, succulent, and long. It merits 4-5 years of additional cellaring and will present a drinking window extending from 2014 to 2026.

Twenty-one months in barrel and six racks off the settled lees have brought integration and clarity. Elegant structure and the rich, briary fruit typical of our Santa Cruz Mountains estate combine to give the wine immediate appeal. An excellent vintage, it will continue to develop over the next twelve to fourteen years.
