Synchromesh Cachola Family Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2016
Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaDusty, warm, spiced raspberry on this paler-yet-potent cabernet franc, from the charming Cachola Family Vineyard, just north of Oliver. Riper than the 11.9 percent frame would let you believe, this is a raspberry leafed franc, softly wrapped around a warm strawberry jam core that fills the mouth to a finely smoked salts and smoked cinnamon finish. Tannins are nubile and the mouthfeel is silken. This spent 10 months in 38 percent new French oak, and welcomes pork ribs or lardon-laden salads.Tasted: 14 December 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $28.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
