Bench 1775 2014 Cabernet Franc 750ml

Our Cabernet Franc grapes are sourced from eastern-facing slopes in our Osoyoos vineyard. The wine is a single varietal clone of Cabernet Franc clone 214. This clone in particular gives fantastic floral aromatics and flavour expression: violets, white flowers and red raspberry notes with soft cocoa tannins. The 2014 Vintage, although warmer than 2013, would still be considered ‘cool-climate’, resulting in a soft, fully ripe wine with exceptional balance. This wine is best paired with roast duck or lamb and winter vegetables. --Winemaker
