The 2023 T. Berkley ‘Franc’ Cabernet Franc from North Coast offers a fresh, vibrant profile with bright red and black cherry notes lined by subtle herbs and spice. Concentrated dark plum and baked boysenberry aromas unfold on the nose, complemented by dried leaves and black tea nuances.
On the palate, it delivers high-toned vibrancy, lovely acidity, and dusty tannins that echo the structured freshness of Loire Valley Chinon. Red berries and a hint of graphite add precision without excess weight. This terroir-driven California take stands apart from heavier styles.
Serve lightly chilled with grilled lamb chops or mushroom risotto.
