Fantastic Cabernet Franc — a month ago
Southern Rhône valley (Gigondas and Vaucluse) so likely mainly Grenache rather than Syrah in blend. I liked, velvety and fruity but not too much. Mineral notes too. Moderate long finish with minimal tannins. For W just so so. From Haskell’s box. — 20 days ago

This is just lovely…
Lemonzest, red apples, wet rocks. Delicate hints of ginger, candyshop and matchstick. Really like the balance of acidic freshness, some richness in the mid palate and citrus bitters in the very long and chalky dry finish.
Better at cellar temperature than straight out of the fridge. — 20 days ago
