    Anyone else into Cabernet Franc?
    Includes blends with a strong CF component. Washington wines tend to be exploring this far more than the mainstream CA wines and I think it is great!

    Mark David Cab Franc from Pine Mountain in northern Sonoma county. It is the only bordeaux wine sold at Arista Winery in Healdsburg. (Arista is known for producing outstanding Pinot Noir) Cab Franc makes a wonderful still wine, but is primarily used as a blending wine to add color and depth to an otherwise weak cabernet sauvignon. The Mark David Cab Franc usually sells out quickly due to the fact that it is produced in very small lots. You can contact the winery and get the next release reserved. Arista Winery-707473-0606.

    How does this compare with Cab Sauvignon?
