NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This BookCliff Reserve Cabernet Franc is a robust and full-bodied red wine.On the nose, there are aromas of ripe dark berries, dried herbs, and a hint of spice. On the palate, the wine is complex and layered, with flavors of black cherry, tobacco, and subtle notes of oak. The tannins are well-integrated and the finish is long and lingering. Enjoy this wine with a juicy steak or a rich vegetable dish.

Region: Colorado

Colorado is a state in the western United States, located in the Rocky Mountains region. It is known for its stunning landscapes, outdoor activities, and now, its burgeoning wine industry. With its unique topography and climate, Colorado is quickly becoming a major player in the American wine scene. The history of winemaking in Colorado dates back to the late 19th century, when Italian immigrants began planting vineyards in the state. However, it wasn't until the late 20th century that the industry began to take off. In 1978, the first commercial winery in Colorado opened, and since then, the industry has grown exponentially. Today, there are over 100 wineries in the state, producing a wide variety of wines.
