Walla Walla Vintners Cabernet Franc 07
Walla Walla Vintners Cabernet Franc 07 -
"..The nose reminds us of the perfume you smell while torching the sugar crust for a Creme Brulee. The midpalate oozes with the flavor of toffee in a Heath Bar and has a lingering finish of dark chocolate covered Bing cherries. Sauteed boneless chicken breast with tarragon cream sauce or saut?ed halibut steaks with hollandaise sauce served with fresh peas, shallots and porcini mushrooms with steamed Chinese black rice will pair well with this Franc."
MORE INFORMATION
Walla Walla Vintners -- bonded in 1995 -- is a limited-production winery dedicated to making handcrafted, premium red wines --Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot -- cellared and aged in American and French oaks. The winemakers are Myles Anderson, and Gordon Venneri. This duet produced homecrafted wines for many years before making commercial wines. The homecrafted venture permitted them to practice winemaking, take mistakes to the dump, and forge a successful partnership. Neither partner has given up his day job - this is still a hobby business. Gordon is a CPA and field agent for Knight of Columbus Insurance and Myles is a teaching psychologist at the local community college. The new winery, designed and built by Alan Jones, is located off Mill Creek Road on 17 acres near the Blue Mountains.
