From the Stover vault. 2001 Viansa 'Samuele' Cabernet Franc, Sonoma County. Rich and concentrated. Plum, cassis and black pepper. Slight dried tobacco and leather but hardly showing it's age. #wine #delectable #sonoma #cabernetfranc

Viansa ‘Samuele’ 2005: Medium-Full bodied. Excellent balance & finesse. Well integrated acidity & tannins. Blackberry. Black currant. Plum. Vanilla. Oak. Long smooth finish. An excellent & robust Sonoma County Cab Franc blend that is still bright after 17 years. Glad I was able to unbottle & share this beauty. Great day to all! Cheers🍷

Great wine. Body body body. Needs to breathe. We let it sit two hours.
