Awesome but I'm biased. THROWBACK to '97. 3 year old vines. Stunning development, dried red flower, jalepeno, earth/mushroom.

Lots of secondary dark fruit with a more showing in the finish. Pretty good for a natural 97 north fork wine

Nice earthy Cab Franc with cranberry, licorice, and coffee with cocoa powder. Nice tannins but the acidity makes it a bit tart. Still, I'm proud of my homeland for making great wine!

Great wine. Not too heavy and breathes very well.
