Heron Hill Winery Classic Cabernet Franc 2020 Review
New York's Finger Lakes region has become known for its spicy and fresh take on Cabernet Franc, and this bottle — sourced from vineyards on three different lakes in the region — exemplifies this style. It has bright notes of red plum, raspberries, strawberries, and and cinnamon across the nose and palate.
