The St. Francis Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 brims with deep flavors and aromas. This red wine is deep purple in the glass and displays hardy aromas of cassis, black cherry, and cocoa. Hints of black licorice mingle on the nose to provide elegance and intrigue. The wine has good structure and generous tannins. Flavors of currant, mocha, vanilla, spice, and black cherry coat the palate and lead to a long, luxurious finish. Enjoy this distinctive Cabernet Sauvignon with a variety of dinner options, including a juicy ribeye steak, braised short ribs, or mushroom stroganoff.
