One of the winemakers at Baudry, Helda Rabout's charming Cabernet Franc. Great balance of tart cherry, earth, & acid. Could work with an array of different dishes. Very nice.

Touch of funk and lift on palate, crunchy, lighter styled but with a flavor pop, fun & adventurous

Charming wine. Soft red fruits and green pepper with lots of depth, minerality, and life.
