Mitre's Edge | Cabernet Franc

The Vibe

Think of Cabernet Franc as Cabernet Sauvignon’s cooler, slightly more intellectual sibling. This wine is brilliantly elegant. It smells amazing—think crushed raspberries mixed with dried herbs and a nostalgic hint of pencil shavings. It is fascinating, food-friendly, and guaranteed to make you look like a wine expert when you pour it for friends.
