Juicy, drinkable, mineral, genuinely complex. Now a glass pour at Fort Defiance.

Lean and rustic with warm red fruits and a peppery, mineral tang. So drinkable and perfect for a cool fall night.

Weird. Straight up weird, under a crown cap too! Some Cabernet elements, but it tasted so raw and young. Not sure how I feel at this point.

Barnyard silky Cab Franc that may be one of the only ones from Italy that tops the Loire counterparts..at least that I've tried. Super small batch. My go to year round red. Excellent with a slight chill.

A great swirl to see in a store or a restaurant. Full of jammy fruit that are lightly alive.

Ofiltrerad och välkyld. Cab Franc-majoritet som ger härliga växttoner.

Cheap, tasty, and the right amount of tartness. I think we have found our cheap binge-drinking wine!
