Camille Benitah Maxville Lake Winery Napa Valley Cabernet Franc 2015
About the wine
Elegant, limited-release Napa Cabernet Franc - yours with an exclusive $27 Angel savings
- This Cabernet Franc comes to you with a complex cast of dark fruit flavors, from lush raspberry to ripe plum, refined by 6 years of aging for a velvety texture that leads into a long finish.
- Camille harvested her Cabernet Franc from the Chiles Valley region tucked in the northern reaches of Napa, where hot days and cool nights create the perfect conditions for growing grapes with rich, concentrated flavors.
- Camille is an icon on both sides of the Atlantic, combining the finesse of her native France with the bold power of Napa reds to bring you high-end, small-production wines like this Cabernet Franc. Indulge in this limited, luxurious red while supplies last!
Best before
This Cabernet Franc will continue to improve for the next 5 to 10 years, but with a few years of bottle aging already, this wine has a beautiful bouquet now.
Serving advice
It's ready when you open it, and will reveal itself slowly as you enjoy it!
Food match
Cabernet Franc goes well with tomato-based dishes, BBQ, or rich stew of black beluga lentils.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Camille Benitah
- Camille learned her craft in Bordeaux, France working at very prestigious Chateaux there. She moved to California and was the winemaker for one of Napa's most sought-out cult wines, Merus ($150 a bottle).
- But like all real artists, Camille wanted to make her own wine, her own way -- and Angels allow her to do just that. She's uncompromising and fiercely protective of her wines every step of the way.
- We didn't hold anything back with Camille. She gets to make her dream wine, no holds barred, and the results are spectacular.
