Story
Peter Franus Cabernet Sauvignon is another great organic red wine that comes from Peter Franus and his rich experience in winemaking. This wine has deep ruby in colour with harmonious aromas of sweet vanilla, cassis, dried herb, spices, and florals. Full-bodied on the palate with vibrant red cherries and plums, with notes of black pepper and espresso. Rich, ripe, and silky smooth tannins with a bold and long finish.

Peter Franus’ winemaking philosophy is simple: great wines come from great vineyards. With his 30 plus years of experience in Napa Valley, Peter Franus can identify the vineyards that are truly the best of the best in order to source the absolute highest quality fruit and create the highest quality wines. He relies on his own intuition, experience, and takes a minimalist approach to the winemaking process and with this, each of his wines hosts its own unique personality and character. The fruit in this rich Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from three vineyard sites from the rugged terrain of Mount Veeder and is spur pruned on vertical trellises.
Napa Valley’s first vines were planted in 1839 and just 50 years later, over 140 wineries were in operation. Fast forward to 1976 with Napa Valley being thrown into the spotlight with the Paris Tasting, where California wines out-performed their French counterparts, shocking winemakers of the world and putting Napa Valley on the map. With its ideal wine-growing temperate climate, mountain ranges, and proximity to the Pacific Ocean, Napa Valley is now the most sought after California wine.
