Here are the attributes of the 2 clones:1,2
Clone Type | |
ENTAV-INRA 214 | Highest rating; characterized by raspberry and violet flavors in France; a high performance warm vintage clone with dark fruit flavors, tannin structure and less green, herbal flavors |
ENTAV-INRA 327 | Released in 1975; highest rating; like 326 produces structured and powerful wines; weaker of the two ENTAV clones, higher acid, brighter fruit, tends to be more herbaceous towards dill, muddy flavors |
Here is an example of a cluster of Cabernet Franc 214. We like the loose architecture of the cluster. We must get to netting our Cabernet Franc very soon!
