| Community Tasting Notes (average 89 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 3 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by TannicBeast on 7/15/2012 & rated 88 points: This is a delightfully fresh and balanced Cabernet Franc. I would have never guessed that it was from Georgia. It could easily be mistaken for a Chinon or Bourgueil. Ruby, medium intensity. The nose is clean, with raspberry aromas. The nose is developing. The palate is dry, with red fruit predominating. The acidity is medium plus. The alcohol is medium at 13%. The tannins, body, flavor intensity and length are medium. Drink now, not intended for ageing. Pairing well with a wide range of appetizers, this wine is reminiscent of a Pinot Noir. (1294 views) | | Tasted by bigedk33 on 7/5/2012 & rated 89 points: This light-to-medium bodied table red has a nose of leather, smoky tobacco and strawberry. In the mouth, the wine begins fruit-forward and bright like a Pinot Noir, with a hint of pepper in the middle and a smooth easy finish. Tannins are more present in this wine than in the Rabun Red but it?s still not a huge red that I?d lay down for any length of time. http://50shadesofgrape.com/2012/07/05/pre-trip-tasting-tiger-mountain-cabernet-franc-2008/ (1351 views) |
| Tiger Mountain Vineyards Producer web siteCabernet Franc Varietal character (Appellation America) | Wines & Vines articleUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.Georgia Winegrowers Association of Georgia | Georgia Wine Country |
