About the wine
A dark, dreamy Cab Franc from the rocky cliffs of Sonoma
-
Angel funding gave Peter the chance to put extra TLC into this inky red, and let's be franc- it has a seriously lush texture and palate full of black fruit and spice. This Reserve comes to play.
-
This Cabernet Franc hails from the rugged terrain of Haywood's Los Chamizal vineyard, set in the foothills north of Sonoma. Its steep cliff sides and rocky soil make only the strongest vines survive.
-
Bring your game to this richly black, spicy number. And by game, we're talking meat: Lamb, rabbit, duck, venison... it will stand up.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Peter Haywood
- Peter made such good wine a big corporation came to buy his brand name. They paid big bucks to use his name but they never cared about the talented winemaker that was behind the excellent wine.
- While the brand got sold from one corporation to the next, Peter went on growing great grapes and making good wine under different names.
- If you care more about the winemaker than about the brand name, buy a bottle of Peter's wine.
