Vibrant aromas of raspberry lead into a crisp, refreshing palate layered with white pepper, raspberry, cola, and fresh herbs. Light-bodied and expressive, the wine delivers remarkable complexity with flavors that continue to evolve from the first sip through the finish. Well-balanced and refreshing, this Cabernet Franc showcases both elegance and character.

VINEYARD INFO
White Cat Vineyard is located in the Crane Ridge district on the eastern side of Livermore Valley, across from Poppy Ridge Golf Course. Nestled among rolling foothills, the vineyard enjoys abundant sunshine from morning until dusk, along with moderate afternoon winds that help maintain balance during the growing season. White Cat Vineyard is home to three acres of Cabernet Franc, with 80% of the fruit sourced from the upper block of Clone 01 vines planted 12 years ago and 20% from the lower block of mature Clone 05 vines planted more than 30 years ago. The combination of vineyard location, clone selection, and vine age contributes depth, complexity, and distinctive varietal character to the wine.
