Ashes & Diamonds 2015 Cabernet Franc

The 2015 Ashes & Diamonds Cabernet Franc No. 2 from Napa Valley is a vibrant and expressive wine that showcases the elegance and complexity of the varietal. On the nose, it opens with airy aromas of tart cherry and red currant, layered with savory notes of tobacco, portobello mushroom, black pepper, and sage. These are complemented by earthy undertones of clay, graphite, and rocky soil. The palate is equally compelling, offering a bright and tangy profile with structured yet supple tannins. Flavors of black cherry and stewed strawberry mingle with hints of paprika, soy, and cedar, while a touch of vanilla and baking spice adds warmth. The wine’s balanced acidity and moderate alcohol (around 13.5%) lend it a refreshing finish and remarkable aging potential. Crafted with biodynamic farming and natural winemaking practices, this Cabernet Franc is both a tribute to old-school Napa and a modern expression of terroir-driven finesse
