Yakima Valley, Washington State is the origin of this Cabernet Franc, brought to you by Winexpert as part of their Limited Edition series of wine kits. Yakima Valley sits at the same latitude as the Loire Valley, which is notable as a prime region in France for growing wine grapes. This latitude has cooler climates than those found further south in the state of California, perfect for growing Cabernet Franc grapes. This region gets around 17 hours of sunlight a day, which is more than California. Cabernet Franc grapes grown in the Yakima Valley reach their full potential, yielding grapes with red raspberry and red currant notes that are tempered with mint and black pepper aromas and flavors. These grapes also provide the wine with plenty of earthy tannins for rich structure. Yakima Valley Cabernet Franc is an excellent wine that pairs well with lamb, steak, aged cheddar, and other rich and spicy foods. An excellent wine, available for a limited time only!
Food Pairing: Steakhouse Panzanella Salad
