Monticello Cabernet Franc

Flying Fox Vineyard & Winery's Cabernet Franc from the Monticello region is a testament to the nuanced elegance this varietal can achieve. This red wine showcases a medium-bodied profile that gracefully balances vibrant acidity with subtle, yet firm tannins. Its fruit intensity is delightfully pronounced, offering a symphony of red and dark fruit flavors like cherry and blackberry, enhanced by delicate hints of spice and earthy undertones. The Monticello region, known for its favorable winegrowing climate, allows the Cabernet Franc grapes to flourish, resulting in a wine with both depth and character. Ideal for pairing with food due to its lively acidity and refined tannic structure, this wine brings a sense of harmony and sophistication to any table.

From rich and powerful California Zinfandel to spicy Oregon Pinot Noir, and from full-bodied Washington Merlot to aromatic New York Riesling, the wines of the United States are nearly as diverse as its population. People have been making wine in North America from European vitis vinifera vines since the first French settlers arrived in the 1500s. Progress stalled along the way by pests and diseases that the vine had never encountered in its homelands, but today wine is produced in all 50 states. With more than 260 AVAs to discover, each with its unique climate and landscape, wines of the United States have much to offer.
