Cabernet Franc is one of the top 20 planted red grape varieties in the world! It's more often than not used as part of a blend, although it's gaining popularity as a single varietal. Cabernet France, along with Sauvignon Blanc are the "proud parents" of the world's most famous red grape ? Cabernet Sauvignon. Therefore it's not surprising to find it has a lot of characters that are reminiscent of its "off-spring". It is an earlier budding grape and ripening varietal that Cabernet Sauvignon and tends to have a greener note, but less tannins ? harvesting later/riper can reduce those green notes however it's a fine balance to ensure, being softer, that it does not become overly ripe and clumsy.
