The Bow & Arrow Estate is an artisanal vineyard located in the beating heart of the Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA. Observant students of French viticulture, the property's owners, Scott and Dana Frank, have created a true haven of peace and authentic winemaking, inspired mainly by the production methods of Loire wines. This picturesque estate, stretching over approximately 6.4 hectares, offers a spectacular panorama of volcanic and sedimentary terroirs, which give Bow & Arrow wines a unique flavor and texture. The climate of the Willamette Valley, with its hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, provides ideal growth conditions for the grape varieties grown here, including Pinot Noir, Melon de Bourgogne, and Gamay, to name just a few. Drawing inspiration from traditional winemaking techniques, Bow & Arrow has chosen to produce biodynamic wines that respect the environment and highlight the characteristics specific to the terroir. Here, there are no pesticides or herbicides. Fermentation is done with indigenous yeasts, bottling without filtration and with a minimum of additives. The philosophy of the estate is centered on creativity and respect for nature. Scott and Dana Frank firmly believe that wine should not only tantalize the taste buds, but should also be a reflection of a specific place and moment - a concept the French would call "terroir". Visiting the Bow & Arrow Estate is an experience in itself. People come for the exceptional quality of its wines, but also for its magnificent tasting room with rustic charm. Open by appointment, it offers an impressive view of the vineyards. In short, Bow & Arrow can be described as a true hideaway for wine lovers in search of authentic and unique flavors.

Discover the grape variety: Cabernet franc

Cabernet Franc is one of the oldest red grape varieties in Bordeaux. The Libourne region is its terroir where it develops best. The terroirs of Saint-Emilion and Fronsac allow it to mature and develop its best range of aromas. It is also the majority in many blends. The very famous Château Cheval Blanc, for example, uses 60% Cabernet Franc. The wines produced with Cabernet Franc are medium in colour with fine tannins and subtle aromas of small red fruits and spices. When blended with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it brings complexity and a bouquet of aromas to the wine. It produces fruity wines that can be drunk quite quickly, but whose great vintages can be kept for a long time. It is an earlier grape variety than Cabernet Sauvignon, which means that it is planted as far north as the Loire Valley. In Anjou, it is also used to make sweet rosé wines. Cabernet Franc is now used in some twenty countries in Europe and throughout the world.
