She has her red hat on and she is stepping off the streetcar to come over for dinner. Ya'll haven't seen each other since 2006, so you have a lot to talk about. Enjoy this "made only in perfect years" cabernet franc while you can!

100% Cabernet Franc
Cabernet Franc, for us, is pure hedonistic joy, which is why we chose it to be our 'reserve' wine .
Inspired by the eccentric characters we have had the privilege to know and admire in New Orleans, and their interesting choice in pets. It is not unusual to see someone walking their miniature horse, goat, duck or parrot on the streets of the French Quarter.
We are incredibly fortunate to have been able to produce a limited amount of this noble grape grown at White Rock Vineyards (some of the oldest Cabernet Franc being grown in Napa). Our luck continued at bottling when our winemaker ran out of foils and opted to hand wax each bottle - further convincing us that Christopher Vandendriessche is a Rock Star!
