2018 Cabernet Franc from the Velo Vineyard in the Templeton Gap. This is a perfectly balanced wine with dark plum and cherry notes, slight earthiness and a long satisfying finish. This pairs well with mediterranean food, rich meats and spiced foods.
2018 Kharis is blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Syrah, 10% Tempranillo, 6% Cabernet Franc. This wine is full flavored with dark fruit, spice, balanced by smooth tannins and acid to give the wine structure and ageability.
