Random Ridge 2011 Mt.Veeder Cabernet Franc

Random Ridge 2011 Mt.Veeder Cabernet Franc

Mission Codename Napa Valley High

2011 was a crazy difficult year for northern California wines. Late ripening and a relatively cooler year made for wines that were sometimes rather lackluster. This is not the case with today’s Random Ridge 2011 Cabernet Franc Mt.Veeder.

Bill managed to pull a rabbit out of his wizard’s hat with this wine. While it is a little shy on opening, it springs to life after some swirling or decanting. When it does open up, it brings forth earthy goodness and dark purple fruit that is pleasing and balanced. The result is a spicy, well fruited, terroir driven Cab Franc that’s an exciting find.

If you love Franc like we do, you’ll be very pleased with today’s selection from Random Ridge.
