So much of the character comes from the Cab Franc - white pepper, graphite, smoke, dried violet. Savory with great acidic drive - absolutely lovely.

Dec 18th, 2016 Vibrant red fruits, cloves and brambly vines. Cherries, raspberry and baking spices. Long finish with firm tannins. Reminiscent of an Aussie blend.

May 1st, 2014 One of a couple to celebrate NYE. Beautiful wine in a great spot right now. Tannins have stepped into the background while the red fruit remains fresh. Happy New Year!
