Cabernet Franc Gist Ranch Estate

Organic

      Santa Cruz Mountain AVA
      The Gist Ranch estate was densely planted in 2000 at elevations reaching 2300 feet above sea level, 17 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. The heavily fractured, Vaqueros sandstone soils and unique mountain micro-climate produce singular, deeply
      concentrated wines that demonstrate the power and elegance of the Santa Cruz Mountains appellation. Gist Ranch is farmed with organic principles and an emphasis on "Living Soils" and biodiversity.

      Grape varieties :

      97% Cabernet Franc, 2.5% Merlot, 0.5% Cabernet Sauvignon

      Altitude :

      730m ASL

      Soil :

      Vaqueros sandstone

      Alcohol :

      Tasting notes :

      An inviting, fruit-driven red that leads with succulent dark cherry, backed by warm spice and a touch of mocha. Forward and approachable, it's best enjoyed for its easygoing style and generous near-term charm.
