Lighter in color and style than most Pott, or any, Cabernet Franc but ripe, juicy and deep. Black cherry, cranberries and cocoa round out the nose. The mouthfeel is soft and luxurious with dried red and black fruit, spicy Chili's and sage. The finish is long and layered with white pepper and smoke. One of my more interesting CF experiences.

Our perception of a wine is influenced by not only the wine, but the surroundings and people with whom we're drinking it. I had this wine in a nice restaurant in St. Helena with Claire Pott, the winemaker's wife. It was rich and tightly structured opening up after an hour to flavors of cassis, cocoa and leather.

Damn! Total winner. Bright tight fruit, crispy herbs, with a touch of earthy stink. I can’t recall being disappointed with a Pott wine.

Aug 6th, 2020Immense concentration of fruit in the mid-palate framed with lovely fresh herbal notes on the finish. This should develop beautifully for many more years.
