FRANCA ESTATE VINEYARDS

NARAMATA BENCH, BC

Nestled in 5 acres on the picturesque Naramata Bench, Franca Estate Vineyards is home to two varietals: Pinot Noir and Riesling. Bathed in west-facing sunlight throughout the day and cooled by lake breezes, this idyllic microclimate creates the perfect conditions for producing exceptional wines.

Who is Franca? This estate was established in the memory of Francesca Nichele. A strong, formidable woman who celebrated life, and courageously battled breast cancer for 16 years. In her memory, 50 cents of every Franca bottle sold will be donated back to cancer research.

Franca Pinot Noir – Shows great balance with intense aromas of bright and dark red fruits along with spice and earthy notes. The intensity of the fruit and earthiness continues on the palate and is wonderfully framed by the vibrant acidity, savory notes, and bold silky smooth tannins producing a long lingering finish.

Franca Riesling – Our Franca Riesling shows great integrity with intense aromas of dried apricots, honeycomb and wild flowers. Juicy acidity is balanced by a hint of natural sweetness producing a long lingering finish.

Franca Rosé – Our Franca Rosé shows great balance with intense aromas of strawberries, white peaches and magnolia blossoms. The intensity of flavour follows onto the palate with a gentle structure and delicious supple acidity.
