Franc Dusak Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
About the wine
Elegant single-vineyard Sonoma Cabernet with an exclusive $32 Angel savings
- This refined Cabernet is a Sonoma classic, humming with fresh red fruit flavors and a touch of spice from barrel-aging in French oak.
- Franc's the Head of Winemaking for your Angel-funded winery in Sonoma, with a resumé that includes stints at super high-end names like Napa cult Cab phenom, World's End. He’s a proven pro at coaxing out complex layers of flavor in world-class Cabs like this.
- This high-end red is ready to savor now – but for a Cab this refined and powerfully fruity, simply give it half an hour or more to open up and breathe after first popping the cork, to make sure you get every little nuance of finesse and meticulously crafted flavor.
Best before
This is a very bold wine, so if you're able to put some away for a year or two, you'll get to see the flavors in this Cab shine their brightest.
Serving advice
Put this one away if you can, the wine is going to expand with time in the bottle. At the very least, decant it and let it sit for 30 minutes before tasting.
Food match
Sonoma lamb - really what else do you need? Lamb and Cabernet are one of the most famous pairings in the world.
Contains sulphites
