2008 Vintage Tasting Notes

The first Cab Franc from Andrew since the 2006, this is one of our favorite Andrew Rich wines - it's just hardly ever available.

The more 2008 Washington reds I taste, the more I love the vintage. Andrew's 08 Cab Franc comes from the now-famous Red Willow Vineyard (source of super-highly rated Syrah from Owen Roe, for starters). Sporting notes of ancho pepper and rich, dark berries, this is a perfect middle point between a massive Washington red and a more elegant Pinot. Recommended.

2006 Vintage Tasting Notes

The Andrew Rich 2006 Cabernet Franc is round and approachable, with lovely varietal flavors. Juicy blueberries and blackberries and black currant are joined by notes of licorice, graphite, and truffle. One of the best values in Northwest Cabernet Franc.
