Ledger David Cellars 2013 Cabernet Franc, Rogue Valley, $29
By Great Northwest Wine on August 27, 2016
Based deep in Southern Oregon, this winery is gaining a reputation as a top Rogue Valley producer. It used estate grapes planted nearly a decade ago to craft a superb example of Cabernet Franc. Aromas of mild oak, vanilla and Bing cherry lead to flavors of dried herbs, blueberry and a hint of cocoa powder. Everything is backed by remarkable acidity and mild tannins – making this a classic example of Northwest Cabernet Franc. This earned a gold medal at the 2016 Cascadia Wine Competition.
Rating: Outstanding!
Production: 234 cases
Alcohol: 14.5%
