2004 DUTCH HENRY CABERNET FRANC

So we're over at Dutch Henry for lunch, as we often are on Saturdays, and wine maker Scott Chafen dips a glass into a barrel to give us an advance taste of the 2004 cabernet franc. Make a note to get it as soon as it's released next year. Deep, rich, black fruits and salle leeather. Excellent structure. Full body. Lingering finish. Scott says he plans to blend it with some cabernet before finalizing. It will be great!
