The 2023 Cultivar Cabernet Franc is a beautifully crafted expression of one of Bordeaux's most celebrated varieties, brought to life in California with the skill and approachability that has made Cultivar one of Napa Valley's most beloved labels. Cultivar — named for the scientific term for a cultivated variety of plant — is dedicated to showcasing the best of California's diverse grape-growing regions, and their Cabernet Franc is a shining example of that philosophy. The 2023 vintage delivers a wine of aromatic charm and satisfying structure: aromas of bright red cherry, raspberry, fresh herbs, violet, and a subtle earthy quality typical of great Cab Franc, leading to a medium-bodied palate of silky texture, vibrant acidity, and a pleasantly savory finish.

Versatile, food-friendly, and endlessly enjoyable, the 2023 Cultivar Cabernet Franc is the kind of wine that earns a permanent spot in your rotation. Serve at 60–62°F alongside roasted pork, grilled salmon, herbed chicken, or a classic mushroom risotto — its herb-driven, elegant character makes it one of the most flexible red wines at the table.
