2017 Kenzo Estate Asuka Cabernet Franc Napa Valley

Asuka is the name of the town in the Nara Prefecture where founder Kenzo Tsujimoto was born, and when translated, represents "a bright future," and "hope for tomorrow." Asuka elevates the classic elements of Cabernet Franc, an approachable wine with signature intense aromatics that jump from the glass. Gentle and vibrant on the palate, refined tannins and bright acidity provide a bold freshness, with a long finish - a triumph of the Estate vineyards ready to enjoy now and into the future.

It pairs well with grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses, making it a versatile choice for various dining occasions.
