Serve at the Right Temperature: Pour Cabernet Franc slightly below room temperature to showcase elegant character and highlight bright red fruit and peppery notes with medium body.
Use the Proper Wine Glass: Choose a bordeaux glass for fuller-bodied styles, a standard red wine glass for everyday drinking, or a burgundy glass for Loire Valley expressions.
Let It Breathe Before Drinking: Open Cabernet Franc and let it breathe for 20 to 30 minutes to soften tannins and reveal complex herbal and fruit layers.
Sip and Appreciate the Elegance: Take small sips to taste raspberry and bell pepper, notice silky tannins and fresh acidity, and appreciate Cabernet Franc's refined, aromatic character.
