vintage 2016 | Odd experience. With 10 y I thought this to be a perfect wine for my Sunday dinner. When my wife and I tasted it we were making funny faces to each other. Verdict: undrinkable. We put it back in the bottle and I took it to a blind tasting with friends. They appreciated the wine. With 72+ hours air the wine came to life. Nice cab franc characteristics. — 4 months ago

Tør, næsten streng vin med masser af rå solbær i næse og mund. Trods garvesyre og rank krop et meget drikkevenligt glas vin. — 5 years ago

Vintage 2010 / dark colour, deep and complex smell with a lot of spices, raspberry, which I love from the first day I sipped a Bourgueil. Velvety taste. / Paired with Dutch Cheese with clove, a specialty from Friesland. — 6 years ago

A delicious gift from @Matt Waring -- delightful even before the pork salad is on the table. Becky noted cherry, strawberry -- dry, strawberry on the palate! Thanks Matt! — 8 years ago

Just a kick ass cab franc. Amirault is a very predictable producer and have enjoyed all his wines so far. For the price, it's also a great value - ripe fruit, bit of flint, smoke, and moss, moderate tannins. This has become an everyday excellent dinner wine. — 10 years ago

Catching up from a few days ago — Work travel - when they hand me the wine list. My effort at being reasonable. Everyone cheered this selection. The little things….

2019 Les Quarterons is a Cab Franc from the Loire region. They had this selection in the Rhône section, but was very un-Rhône like. Almost Oregon Pinot style. Paired really well with my Duck Cassoulet. — 3 years ago

Promising nose but somewhat under delivered palate. Ripe strawberry, raspberry jam, bell pepper. I had expected a bit more structure, it was a wee bit flabby. Sortof like a person who is funny on the internet but not as witty in person. But still nice! 🍓🍇🌶 — 9 years ago
