Coravin pour with 1.5 hrs of air. Hot damn this cab franc is outstanding. This is not a “taste like a cab” cab franc. This has true cab franc characteristics but is elevated by the beckstoffer farming. This is my favorite vintage of this dr crane cab franc and would love to try this against the macauley to kalon cab franc. 97+. — 2 years ago

My first time trying this producer’s Zin. I opened this yesterday knowing that it likely needed more time but was too impatient to wait. Decanted for 2 hours and it still gave off heat from alcohol, but started to develop with time in the glass. Day 2 and this wine has improved significantly. This wine is jammy, but not overly. I think this wine will really shine with a couple more years in the bottle. Will wait to open the next one. — a month ago
