Located east of Napa in Coombsville, Mt. George Vineyard is the site of one of the first grape plantings in the valley in the 19th century. It climbs the western slopes of an ancient volcano whose name the vineyard bears. The cooler climate and deep, gravelly soils derived from volcanic rock and ash provide depth and structure to Silverado Vineyards’ wines.

The 2023 Mt. George Cabernet Franc presents an aromatic profile defined by bright, elevated red berries and a refreshing mineral quality, accented by spicy notes and a subtle hint of herb. The palate is equally expressive, featuring layers of black cherry and red cherry that transition into a slightly spicy floral character with touches of clove. A tangy acidity leads to decadent flavors of chocolate-covered cherries, culminating in a supple finish with impressive length.
