Pearmund Cellars Cabernet Franc
Pearmund Cellars
United States - Virginia

Cabernet Franc is quickly gaining status as one of Virginia’s top red varieties and Pearmund Cabernet Franc is a prime example of what the variety can do.

Aromas of blackberry, blueberry, dried leaves, and hints of pepper are present on the nose. Silky tannins and similar flavors combine with additional notes of dried cherry and vanilla on the palate.
