Hearst Ranch Lone Tree Cabernet Franc Paso Robles 2021 750ml
Description
Hearst Ranch Lone Tree Cabernet Franc Paso Robles 2021 is an expressive red wine with polish, freshness, and savory depth. Cabernet Franc takes the spotlight here, showing both ripe Paso Robles fruit and the grape’s natural herbal lift. As a result, the wine feels rich, balanced, and easy to enjoy at the table.The nose opens with black cherry, wild raspberry, and red currant. Then notes of violet, graphite, dried herbs, tobacco leaf, and white pepper add detail. On the palate, dark fruit comes forward first. Meanwhile, silky tannins give the wine shape without making it feel heavy.This 2021 vintage carries a ruby-garnet hue and a smooth, elegant texture. At 14.8% ABV, it offers generous flavor and warmth, while still keeping enough acidity for freshness. In addition, subtle earthy tones bring depth to the finish and keep the fruit from feeling too sweet.Hearst Ranch Winery brings together Paso Robles farming and a strong Central Coast identity. Because of that, Lone Tree offers a confident style for Cabernet Franc fans and buyers who usually reach for Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot.Serve it with herb-crusted lamb, grilled steak, roasted mushrooms, pork tenderloin, charcuterie, or aged cheeses. Also, consider giving it a short decant before serving. Then its black fruit, spice, and savory mineral notes can open more fully in the glass.
