Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cabernet Franc wine?

Cabernet Franc is a blue-black grape variety that is among the primary grapes used in Bordeaux wine blends. However, it's not just a supporting actor. On its own, Cabernet Franc produces fascinating, medium-bodied red wines that have become increasingly sought after by enthusiasts worldwide. These wines typically present a combination of fruity and herbaceous flavors, with common tasting notes including raspberry, bell pepper, crushed violets, and, at times, graphite. Its lighter tannins compared to Cabernet Sauvignon make Cabernet Franc wines quite approachable in their youth, though many also possess the structure required for aging. Historically overshadowed by its more famous offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc is now earning recognition as a standalone varietal, displaying its own distinct charm and elegance.

Which wine regions make the best Cabernet Franc wine?

The Loire Valley in France, particularly areas like Chinon and Bourgueil, is arguably the global epicenter for top-quality Cabernet Franc wines. Here, the grape has flourished for centuries, yielding wines that artfully express the region's unique terroir. However, Bordeaux cannot be overlooked, where Cabernet Franc plays a critical role in the region's iconic blends, especially from the Right Bank appellations like Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Outside of France, regions such as California's Napa Valley, New York's Finger Lakes, and Argentina's Mendoza have also garnered attention for producing outstanding Cabernet Franc wines, reflecting each area's distinctive characteristics.

What are the most popular Cabernet Franc wines?

The popularity of Cabernet Franc wines varies by region. In the Loire Valley, wines from producers like Domaine Bernard Baudry in Chinon or Domaine de la Chevalerie in Bourgueil have developed a devout following. In Bordeaux, châteaux like Château Ausone and Château Cheval Blanc craft legendary blends where Cabernet Franc shines brilliantly. Stateside, wineries such as Lang & Reed in Napa Valley or Ravines Wine Cellars in the Finger Lakes have showcased the grape's adaptability and potential for excellence in New World terroirs. These examples represent only a fraction of the diverse and compelling Cabernet Franc wines available on the market today.

What are the best value Cabernet Franc wines?

While there are plenty of premium Cabernet Franc wines that command higher prices, the grape is also known for offering excellent value. Many gems come from the Loire Valley, where the cost of land and production hasn't reached the peaks of regions like Bordeaux or Napa. Wines from Saumur-Champigny, Anjou, or Touraine often provide fantastic value, delivering the grape's characteristic flavors at affordable prices. Similarly, emerging regions like Argentina's Mendoza or South Africa's Stellenbosch are producing high-quality Cabernet Franc wines that won't break the bank.

What are the foods best paired with Cabernet Franc wines?

Cabernet Franc's medium body and distinctive flavor profile make it an exceptionally versatile food wine. Its herbal notes beautifully complement dishes with green herbs like rosemary or thyme. Think roasted lamb or grilled vegetables. The wine's acidity and red fruit flavors make it a natural match for tomato-based dishes, be it pasta or pizza. Given its French roots, it's no surprise that Cabernet Franc pairs wonderfully with classic dishes like duck confit or coq au vin. However, its adaptability means it can also stand up to spicier cuisines, making it a delightful companion for dishes ranging from Mediterranean to certain Asian preparations.
