"Big Daddy" - 2021 Cabernet Franc, White Cat Vineyard, Livermore Valley
Smooth, seductive, and rich, and statuesque with lovely tannins, this lush blackberry jammy wine is shimmering with appeal, wrapping itself around you like a velvet robe. Leather, cedar, tobacco and blackberry aromas wow you from the first whiff, then warms with a flood of rich red velvety chocolate cake.
Pair with elk tenderloin with sage and juniper; bison filet with rosemary compound butter; pork chile verde; chile relenos; chicken enchiladas with salsa verde; mushroom, rosemary Asiago and leek pizza with balsamic and EVOO drizzle
