Winemakers Notes:
For over 15 years, Chinook has produced a Cabernet Franc from our estate vineyard and selected growers' fruit in the Yakima Valley. The 2009 Cabernet Franc is 100% varietal and from 100% Yakima Valley AVA fruit. Our hands-on, minimal processing produces a Franc that is soft, drinkable and low in tannins. This remains the most rustic-styled of our wines. To emphasize the recognizable Cabernet Franc characteristics (cherries, raspberries, licorice, violets) we choose to age this wine in neutral oak. In the 2009 season, grapes were grown at Chinookâs Estate Vineyard, Boushey Vineyards, Carter Farm, Desert Hills Vineyards and Lonesome Spring Vineyard.
