Cabernet Franc is one of the wine world's best-kept secrets—a grape beloved by sommeliers for its elegance, versatility, and ability to express a true sense of place. While often recognized as the parent of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc stands confidently on its own, offering vibrant red fruit, delicate herbal notes, refined tannins, and remarkable food-pairing potential.
From the historic vineyards of France's Loire Valley to acclaimed producers in Napa Valley and beyond, this captivating varietal reveals a different personality wherever it's grown. Join us for a four-course Lunch & Learn as we explore the many expressions of Cabernet Franc through thoughtfully selected wines paired with a seasonal menu designed to showcase its versatility.
Whether you're already a fan or discovering Cabernet Franc for the first time, you'll leave with a new appreciation for one of the wine world's most compelling grapes.
