Episode Details

This week, it’s all about Cabernet Franc! Why? Because it’s #NationalCabernetFrancDay! Finally a wine day that lands on a Friday! Join Shelley and Phil as they taste a Cabernet Franc from Chinon, France and a 100% Cabernet Franc from Andrew Will Winery. The fruit is from Yakima Valley but the winery is located on Vashon Island, a short ferry boat ride from where Phil grew up! #ItsWineTime
