Medium deep ruby with pink rim . Quite crunchy mix of summer fruits , strawberry , raspberry and touch of dark cherry , touches of violet and also slight toastiness from the oak . On the palate quite strict acidity and slightly gritty but ripe tannin , with nice fresh fruits from the nose , strawberry , dark cherry and raspberry with some black currant and a hint of wood spice. Decent length and balance , this shows pretty young and will need a little time to integrate , but is promising. Good intensity, fills out well on the palate with no lack of freshness, balanced alcohol . Better in 2-3 years and will last well a further 5-10 — 2 months ago

9.0

Deep ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Nose of red fruits with light earth notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black currants, black plums, cherries, spices, tobacco, earth, light wood, dark coffee and black pepper.

Smooth finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This 6 year old is a very easy drinking Cabernet Franc from the Loire Valley in France.

Good right out of the bottle, and gets more complexity as it opens up. Tannins show up after 45 minutes of airtime.

I had it 4 years ago, and it is drinking pretty much the same, although it did gain more complexity. Will not get any better from this point, so drink up.

Good by itself as a sipping wine and good with food. I gave it a light chill and paired it with cheeses and crackers.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.
