Tasting notes
Pride's 2021 Cabernet Franc is all estate fruit, boasting assertive notes of raspberries and cherries but also hints of tobacco or tomato leaf. Medium to full-bodied, it's silky in feel, fully ripe, with hints of carob and leafy herbal notes on the finish.

The 2021 Cabernet Franc comes from equal parts Sonoma and Napa, and it's a medium-bodied, elegant Cabernet Franc offering darker cherry and redcurrant-like fruit, some earthy tobacco and underbrush notes, fine tannins, and a nicely balanced overall feel. It should have a decade of prime drinking, if not more.
The 2021 Cabernet Franc is another terrific wine in this range from Pride. In 2021, the Franc is especially aromatic and a bit less opulent than in some recent years, an approach that brings out more varietal character. Crushed herbs, spice, dark red cherry and leather all grace this super-appealing Franc. This is such classy wine.
