Review:

Winemaker Tad Seestedt's Ransom Cabernet Franc is sourced from the Pheasant Hill Vineyard of Oregon's Rogue Valley.

Aroma of dark plum and blueberry interspersed with vanilla, toast and smoke. The palate is luscious and fills your mouth with explosions of blackberry and bing cherry with hints of herbs on a persistent finish. - Marcus

Oregon's Rogue Valley is ripe for the reinterpretation of Bordeaux varietals, and this single vineyard Cabernet Franc is true to both its heritage and the wild terroir of the Southern Cascades. Savory and herbal on the nose, it evokes a forager's basket of mountain blueberries and sage. Bright fruit and lively acidity mark the entry, expounded upon by a mouthful of fine tannins that linger in a long and satisfying finish. - the winery

The intent of Ransom Wine Co. is to create artisan crafted wines that exemplify true varietal character and express the individuality of the growers, vineyard sites, and vintages. Our belief is that wine is best made by hand with minimal intervention. Winemaking decisions are mainly based on taste, instinct, what the grapes want to do, and a bit of common sense. We believe that wine is an integral part of everyday meals, complimenting the food and adding to the sense of delight and fulfillment found in gathering to eat and drink. It is the function of wine to enhance fellowship, discussion, and the exchange of ideas. So visit the market, invite over friends and family, and raise a toast to health and happiness through good meals, conversation and socializing! SALUD! - the winery
