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 Yan areas, as well as Hector and Lodi. With distinct soil profiles, aspects, vine ages, and proximity to the lake shore, each site was carefully selected to create a Cabernet Franc that reflects the entire vintage—a warm, sun-drenched season that delivered beautiful depth and flavor.

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.
