POLLARD 2016 Cabernet Franc

May 9, 2018

Wine Wednesday brings us this crazy good Cabernet Franc by our friend Robin Pollard. You might recognize her name from me writing about her and the coffee she roasts and blends for Watson Kennedy. She invited us over recently for a taste of her new wine on a lovely Vashon Sunday afternoon. Oh my, we were smitten with this new vintage. While her home is on the island, Pollard Vineyard is a ten acre site located in the Upper Yakima Valley of Washington State. Truly an exceptional part of the world for a vineyard. This is just her second bottling, her first I wrote about awhile back. I know many of you have asked me where to buy the wines I write about, and sadly, they are not always available in your area. Robin does ship this fabulous wine, if you are at all interested. Click here. We love supporting small businesses, and when that is a talented hard working friend–we say cheers to that!
