Paradigm Cabernet Franc 2009
Oakville, Napa Valley, California, United StatesA beautifully rich and structured Napa red, with deep and ripe cassis, cracked black pepper and herbal thorns balanced out over a supple, complete palate. Nearly one fifth of the blend is cabernet sauvignon, the structure and presence of the grape upping the gravitas of this powerful, polished red. Drink now with richer lamb or beef dishes, but be patient and rewarded with five years in the cellar.Tasted: 21 March 2015Tasted by: Prices:BC | $75.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Pacific Wine & Spirits |
