2020 Thalia Vineyard Cabernet Franc
2020 Thalia Vineyard Cabernet Franc
The only Cabernet Franc harvested in 2020, picked and processed before the outbreak of the Glass Fire, this vintage marks the first time Thalia Vineyard is bottled as a stand alone. Usually a significant percentage of Ophelia, this beautiful 25+ year old vineyard right on the outskirts of Calistoga is one of my favorites. And the wine it produces is always a standout.
After 22 patient months in French oak, and nearly a year in bottle, this wine is finally ready. Showcasing the Cab Franc lilt with notes of violet undergirded by elegant spices. Vibrant and high toned on the palate, with a core of bright acidity and elevated tannins, this is traditional Cabernet Franc. 250 Cases Produced.
