About Frank Family 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
Housed in Napa Valley's historic Larkmead Winery, these hand crafted wines live up to the heritage of the land.
Grapes for this 2016 Napa Cab are sourced from estate vineyards including S&J Vineyard located east of the Vaca Mountain range in Napa’s Capell Valley and Benjamin Vineyard located east of Conn Creek Road in the heart of the Rutherford AVA. Additional vineyard sources include Round Pond Estate in Rutherford, Delouise, and Shooting Star Vineyards located in Napa Valley.
The blend is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc aged 20 months in 33% new and 67% once and twice-filled French oak barrels.
The Wine Advocate scored this 90 points saying "Made up of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is very deep garnet-purple in color and displays expressive notions of baked plums, warm cassis and licorice with hints of bay leaves and scorched earth. Medium-bodied, it fills the mouth with juicy black fruit and earthy sparks, finishing chewy."
