Special Note About Region and Varietal
One of the world’s most revered red wine grapes, Cabernet Franc is the parent of Cabernet Sauvignon, yet it stands out with its own distinct charm. Known for its lighter body, higher acidity, and refined tannins, Cabernet Franc wine showcases an elegant balance of red fruit flavors like strawberry, raspberry, and plum, alongside signature notes of crushed violets, bell pepper, and savory herbs. Originally from France’s Loire Valley and Bordeaux, this grape thrives in diverse regions, including Yakima Valley, where it develops deep complexity. Its natural acidity and herbal undertones make Cabernet Franc food pairings exceptional, complementing everything from roasted meats and charcuterie to grilled vegetables and aged cheeses. Whether you’re asking, “What is Cabernet Franc?”, exploring Cabernet Franc grapes, or seeking the perfect Cabernet Franc pairing, this varietal offers a sophisticated and food-friendly experience in every glass.
