This is 42% Grenache, 33% Mourvèdre, and 25% Petite Sirah. Purchased at the winery last August. The nose is so bright and alive, with jumpy dark berries, lots of bright, crushed stone dust, a rich floral note, and a dusting of spice. On the palate it’s got concentrated, mouthfilling flavors, but beautiful balance. Nice balance of fruit and mineral components. Soft tannins, nice, integrated acids, long finish. Complete. Delicious now but has at least a couple of years of improvement ahead. 9.3 — 5 days ago

Giants winning the World Series may be affecting this post, but this bottle is really singing. Definitely needs more time to mellow, but couldn't resist after Bumgarner closed the door on KC. — 11 years ago

Someone please tap the 3 dots in the upper right and click “report incorrect wine.” I’ve been waiting over 24 hours for @Delectable Wine to correctly identify this, which is not in their database.

This is the 2020 Bumgarner El Dorado County Cabernet Franc. Purchased at the winery. Nose is open, lots of clove and herb-tinged, deep dark cherry. Mouthfilling initially but then tightens up considerably. Nice acids and tannins. This should age nicely for the next several years as the oak integrates and the wine unclenches. — 4 months ago

Peaking now, like Madison Bumgarner during post-season. Bright acidity, great richness and balance. Mostly tertiary aromas with some cherry kirsch ripeness. Great CDP — 9 years ago
