Description

Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 94
EDITORS CHOICE

This is a very fresh style of Cabernet Franc, loaded with black raspberry as well as damp herbs and spicy peppercorns on the nose. There's lively acidity and a very tactile grip to the sip, where elderberry flavors are coated in zesty black pepper, making for a wine that's fun, delicious and classic.

Kings Carey Clos Mullet Vineyard Santa Barbara Cabernet Franc 2020

A lifted, aromatic, cool-climate Cabernet Franc from Kings Carey, sourced from the boutique Clos Mullet Vineyard and crafted with a minimalist, site-transparent approach.
The 2020 vintage shows purity, freshness, and savory nuance—an expressive Santa Barbara interpretation that leans more Loire-inspired than Napa-styled, with finesse over power.
