Backyard Vineyards Simply Social Cabernet Franc 2019
British Columbia, CanadaThis South Okanagan cabernet franc shows a juicy nose of raspberry and sour cherry, layered with tobacco and dried herbs. It's a more savoury style, which works well with the variety, leading to a structured palate with firm, assertive tannins that still need time to resolve. A touch warming on the moderate finish. Well made and a solid pairing for midweek burgers.Tasted: 20 October 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Backyard Vineyards Simply Social Cabernet Franc 2019
British Columbia, CanadaThe Southern Okanagan is home to this fragrant cabernet franc that spent a year in mostly neutral oak. It opens with a raspberry, vanilla bent and a hint of spice. The palate is similar with black pepper and dark plum flavours with a tinge of sour fruit and crushed leaf in the finish. Best served with lamb chops, or dress it down with a pulled pork sandwich.Tasted: 11 August 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Backyard Vineyards Simply Social Cabernet Franc 2019
British Columbia, CanadaFrom two vineyards in the South Okanagan, this bold Cabernet Franc spent 30 days on skins and ferment in stainless. Big and ripe, with gobs of sweet blackberry, black cherry and peppery spice, this amply ripe cabernet is seasoned with cedar and tobacco, and wrapped with sticky tannins to a vanilla finish. An easy, open, friendly wine to crack into now (as intended), ideally with ribs.Tasted: 13 October 2022Tasted by: Prices:
