Unfortunately, we were not able to make our Round Pond reservations. Weather was a bit nasty and drivers weren't the best. However, Alpha Omega gave us a nice tasting and was willing to bust out some cab franc once we told them we were big fans. Thank goodness! This wine was great! No green/bell pepper at all that I associate with cab franc. Even as a '14, the berry and earthy combo was very harmonious. Neither was a standout and I appreciated that. I've only had AO's table wine, II, but I've enjoyed everything I've had. Need to try more from here!

Inky color. Full-bodied and earthy. Dark fruits, mushroom, oak, leather, and a hint of vanilla. Satisfying finish.

Quite young, needs at least 4 years, nose lacks complexity on opening but developed over a long time, body structured
