2008 Virginia Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc
Hume Vineyards Virginia Cabernet Sauvignon is a delightful red wine that beautifully encapsulates the essence of Virginia's winegrowing region. This wine showcases a medium to full body, providing a rich and satisfying mouthfeel that invites exploration. Its bright acidity adds a refreshing liveliness, enhancing the overall experience. The fruit intensity is prominent, with luscious notes of dark berries and cherries intermingling with hints of herbal undertones characteristic of the Cabernet Franc. Tannins are notable, yet soft enough to ensure a smooth finish, making it very approachable even at its vintage age. This wine is beautifully balanced, presenting a dry profile that complements its fruit-forward character, and it pairs wonderfully with roasted meats or hearty dishes.
