2023 Arnot-Roberts Watson Ranch Vineyards Cabernet Franc Napa Valley, USA
$49.99
From a wind-swept, limestone-rich hillside at the southern tip of Napa Valley, this limited bottling (just 7 barrels made) comes from a single acre of Cabernet Franc planted in 2014 at Watson Ranch. The organically farmed site—perched above San Pablo Bay on calcareous clay over rare North Coast limestone—yields a wine of precision and freshness.
Fermented 100% whole cluster with native yeasts, and aged for 10 months in neutral French oak, this is a vibrant, mineral-laced expression of California Cabernet Franc.
