2007 Cabernet Franc
Columbia Valley
Chelan Wine Company, LLC
Chelan, Washington
14.5% abv
Blend Merlot 18%, Franc 82%
Washington Wine Quality Alliance seal is on the back of the bottle.
Appearance: deep garnet, almost black
Aroma: rich dark berries, rich soil earthy tone and there is an alcohol note here fresh out of the bottle. The alcohol back bone on the aroma settles down as the wine opens up. A smoky note appears as well.
Flavors: heavy dark berries, mineral soil earthy tone, 55% dark chocolate like quality, herbal-spice notes,
Mouthfeel: medium-full body. Nice thick feel on the palate, coats the checks and gums, not quite jammy but getting there.
My Strength Rating: 6/6.5
