Keenan - Cabernet Franc - Upper Bowl Vineyard2021

RED WINE

Harvest

This wine was produced exclusively from grapes grown on the Keenan Estate located in Napa Valley's Spring Mountain District. Our two blocks of Cabernet Franc were harvested on September 30th and October 11th, 2019. The fruit was hand-picked then, after de-stemming, the must was inoculated with the Montrachet yeast and fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine aged in French and American oak barrels for twenty months.

Tasting notes

"Freakishly good" is how we have come to describe this single vineyard Cabernet Franc from our highest elevation vineyard (approx. 2000') aptly names the "Upper Bowl". Cabernet Franc is simply not supposed to be this delicious. Enjoy now or decades from now.
