2014 Cabernet Franc
Aromatic nuances of black plum, black cherry and chocolate dominate this wine. The tannins and fruit are beautifully balanced throughout. This unfiltered red wine finishes with a delicate grace. This vintage is a classic representation of what Cabernet Franc grapes have to offer. Fruity, almost jammy upfront with hints of plum and raspberry and a soft herbaceousness. Well-rounded and slightly spicy on the finish, this is one of Long Island’s signature grape varietals. A classic pairing with beef, duck, and robust seafood.

The 2014 Cabernet Franc is THE MOST DELICIOUS WINE I HAVE EVER TASTED. It doesn't have a 'bite,' and it isn't weak or watery. The complex blend of delightful flavors lingers on the tongue after every awesome sip. I hope this wine stays this good forever. This was was the first time I have ever tasted this wine, and it has spoiled my chances of enjoying other wines as much ever again. If this is the only wine I ever drink for the rest of my life, I'll be a happy camper. This Cabernet Franc was an unexpected, delightful surprise!

This is one of the best, possibly the best, Cab Franc I have ever had! Especially when decanted, this is so smooth and rich without being jammy . I enjoy it so much I bought 8 cases of it! I have also served it with other red wine fans and it is always a big hit.
