The 1996 Cabernet Franc (85% Cabernet Franc and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon) is a leaner, more restrained and subtle wine than the Cabernet Sauvignon, with intriguing aromatics of cigar box, menthol, mineral, and currants. In the mouth, the wine borders on austere, but does come through nicely in the finish.Tel. (707) 963-4762; Fax (707) 963-7332
