LET’S BE FRANC
The Cabernet Franc Style Typically a lighter-bodied and less tannic wine than its offspring Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc is medium-bodied and elegant, combining crisp acidity with floral, redcurrant, plum and dried herb aromas. It is juicy, vibrant and refreshing to drink. How Is BC Cabernet Franc Distinct? With all the sunshine and dry warmth during the growing season, BC Cabernet Franc develops intense fruitiness and flavour without sacrificing its refreshing acidity. Depending on when the grapes are picked and how the wine is made, the warmth and sun make for different styles, from medium-bodied and elegant to fuller and more structured.
