The 2024 Cabernet Franc is a blend of 80% fruit from our grower partners and 20% from our Estate Davis Vineyard. The growers represent both sides of Seneca Lake, in the Dundee and Penn Yann areas as well as Hector and Lodi. Displaying unique soil types, aspects, vine age and proximities to the lake shore, each site was selected to formulate a blend of cabernet franc that represents the vintage as a whole – a season that brought us beautiful flavor and depth in the cabernet francs from the warm summer and abundant sunshine we received.

2024 Vintage Notes
The 2024 season was a strong year for us at Damiani and in the Finger Lakes, and with thoughtful viticulture and a gentle hand in the cellar, the wines produced were intentional, energetic, and concentrated.
