Joy Ting 2022 Cabernet Franc

Joy Ting is focused on small batch, limited edition, honest wine from the heart of Virginia wine country. Founded in 2014, while Joy was working at Michael Shaps Wineworks, Joy Ting Wine began as a small side project to express individual creativity and craftmanship.

Made from grapes grown at the Beacon Tree Vineyard in Monticello AVA, this medium-bodied Cabernet Franc was crafted with the whole cluster inclusion and partial carbonic maceration. Compared to the 2021 vintage, this wine includes a higher proportion of whole clusters, up from 30% to 50%, to amplify the bright aromatics and savory character that whole cluster fermentation brings. The result is a wine with lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and violets, layered with subtle notes of baking spice. Fresh and vibrant, it reflects both site and careful techniques.
