2019 Cabernet FRANCis "Pope Juice"
A Papal Legacy Honored in the Spirit of Summer

Celebrate the vibrant warmth of summer with the 2019 Cabernet FRANCis, affectionately called “Pope Juice.” Crafted in tribute to the late Pope Francis, this elegant Cabernet Franc offers a contemplative yet joyful expression of spiritual legacy and seasonal abundance. Graceful and balanced, it’s an ideal red for summer’s longer days and meaningful moments shared over meals and memories.

Tasting Profile
This vintage opens with uplifting aromas of blueberry, ripe cherry, and forest floor, layered with subtle spice and a whisper of dried herbs. On the palate, it shows a lighter, graceful structure compared to previous years, offering medium body and vivid red fruit character. Fresh cherry, cranberry, and gentle notes of clove and cocoa mingle seamlessly, supported by soft tannins and a silky, lingering finish. Enjoy its easy drinkability now, or allow it to evolve over the next couple of years.

Summer Pairing Suggestions
Perfectly suited for the season, this Cabernet Franc pairs beautifully with grilled pork tenderloin, rosemary chicken, or stuffed bell peppers fresh off the barbecue. It also complements summer classics like herbed flatbreads, eggplant Parmesan, or a caprese-stuffed portobello. For lighter fare, enjoy it with charcuterie boards featuring prosciutto, aged cheddar, and cherry compote. Whether shared during a twilight dinner or a thoughtful evening toast, Pope Juice brings grace, warmth, and spirit to every summer table.

Winemaker’s Notes
Made with care, devotion, and a touch of reverence, the 2019 Cabernet FRANCis honors both the varietal’s expressive beauty and the compassionate legacy of Pope Francis. This distinctive red invites reflection and celebration—a wine of subtle strength, timeless elegance, and enduring faith.
