Keenan 2013 Spring Mountain Cabernet Franc

NET RPICED WINE NO FURTHER DISCOUNT Tasting Notes Keenan’s 2013 Spring Mountain Cabernet Franc opens with beautiful blueberry and raspberry fruit interwoven with spring flowers, offering an aromatic profile that is both lifted and expressive. On the palate, the wine is rich, medium to full‑bodied, elegant, and finesse‑driven, showing a balance of ripe berry fruit, floral tones, and subtle herbal nuances. Its texture is polished yet authoritative, with a long, refined finish that reflects its high‑elevation “Upper Bowl” vineyard origins. The varietal composition is 100% Cabernet Franc, sourced exclusively from Keenan’s estate vineyards on Spring Mountain, harvested in early October 2013 and aged twenty months in French and American oak. For food pairings, the wine’s combination of bright red and blue fruit, floral aromatics, and mountain‑grown structure makes it an excellent match for herb‑roasted poultry, grilled lamb, mushroom dishes, roasted vegetables, and Mediterranean‑leaning cuisine. Its acidity and finesse also pair well with tomato‑based dishes, aged cheeses, and preparations featuring fresh herbs, which complement Cabernet Franc’s natural aromatic lift.
