Lamb Meatballs & Cabernet Franc

October 13, 2024
One of the most classic Cabernet Franc pairings is Lamb and Cabernet Franc. Lamb gets a bad rep in the US—I think because of all the mint jelly. Growing up with an Australian father (aka our winemaker Russell Hearn) lamb was a staple in our house, leg of lamb, roast...
