Corcoran Cabernet Franc Waterford Vineyards 2005
Region: Virginia
Winery: Corcoran
Variety: Cabernet Franc

From the winery's website:

"The Cabernet Franc grape has found a home in Virginia and does especially well in the Piedmont terroir of Northern Virginia. This Bordeaux grape is fruitier and lighter than its cousin, Cabernet Sauvignon. Our Cabernet Franc is showing typical dark cherry and raspberry fruit flavors balanced with spicy black pepper and smoky cedar. With its prominent tannins, this is excellent to pair with grilled beef and stronger tasting vegetables such as roasted eggplant."
