I don’t know why, but I’ve always had a soft spot for Steele. Great value for the price. Never earth shattering but never a displeasure either. The lake county cab franc is an entertaining bottle. Smells like baked cherries and spice. Has a prominent earthy, tobacco-like no with dark blackberries, dark chocolate, and a little bit of leather.

Kind of like a Cali version of a Loire. Spicy, red fruit, medium acid, some oak but not overwhelming. Good.

Great Cab Franc for this wonderful Mother’s Day! Lots of jammy fruit, slightly tannic. Needs a longer decant but I was too anxious! Cheers! 🍷💐
