Raylen Cabernet Franc 2005

To the nose, this wine has cherries, vanilla and flowers. It's a dry, bracing wine with a dimension of oak to it. There is a tartness to it that reminds me of chianti, and it has a dry, clean finish. We bought a bottle and drank it later that day with grilled teriyaki chicken breasts, baked beans, garlic bread and corn on the cob. It worked quite well, and it definitely improved with some time to breathe. $15.00
