2006 Pride Mountain Vineyards Cabernet Franc Sonoma County

(93 Points  --  Wine Enthusiast)

This is one of the few Cab Francs in California that works on its own. It’s really a gorgeous wine, showing the full-bodied firmness of Cabernet Sauvignon, but without the tannic weight and density. The flavors veer toward scrumptious red cherries, red currants, milk chocolate and anise, with a dry, complex finish. Lovely with a fine grilled steak and rosemary new potatoes.   Review Date: 07/2009
