Cabernet Franc Rose called The Freddie a Cabernet Franc Rose

Brad Beard with Mercury Wine at http://www.mercurywine.com talking about his Cabernet Franc Rosè at the tasting room located in downtown Geyserville California, the heart of the Alexander Valley.

Cabernet franc is a bigger, bolder grape varietal so it is going to make a bigger, bolder cabernet franc rose. The nose of this cabernet franc rose is strawberry, cranberry, it's really nice. From there it hits the front of the palette with the strawberry and cranberry nose. Typical rose fair. But in the mid-palette is where the cabernet franc really comes on. It starts picking up those cherry notes ... and cherry notes are more typical of red wine. So it starts acting and tasting like a red wine. The Freddie Cabernet Franc Rose starts out light and fruity, then hits those cherry notes and finishes like a red. You should try it.

I was in Geyserville for wine tasting a few months ago and got to try all of Mercury's wines. The Freddie was one of my favorites. Lot's of flavor for a rose and awesome on a hot day.
