Sonoma Valley

Sonoma Valley, known as the 'Valley of the Moon', is a historic AVA in eastern Sonoma County nestled between the Mayacamas and Sonoma Mountain ranges. Its terroir features a moderate Mediterranean climate with cooling fog influence, resulting in warm days and cool nights, along with diverse soils ranging from volcanic to alluvial. While cultivating various grapes, Sonoma Valley is particularly noted for outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Merlot, and Chardonnay, producing elegant, balanced wines that typically show bright fruit character with good structure and aging potential.

St. Francis has been crafting reliable Sonoma County wines since 1971, and their Cabernet Sauvignon shows exactly why they've stood the test of time. This isn't a fussy, overthought wine – it's just good, honest Cabernet that delivers exactly what you want from the variety. Sourced from Sonoma's diverse microclimates, this Cab strikes the perfect balance between fruit-forward California style and structured elegance. It's got enough complexity to impress the wine enthusiasts but remains approachable enough for casual enjoyment. Think of it as the wine equivalent of that friend who's simultaneously cool and unpretentious – the one everyone wants to hang out with.
