One of the more exciting Cab Francs I've had in a bit. Classic in many ways but showing a textural richness and concentration of fruit, earth, and flowers that is markedly unique. Expressive brambly black berry and raspberry, green tobacco leaf, pencil shaving, menthol, animal, damp earth, shiitake.

Bramble/cedar nose, body tight but with notes of tobacco box, cedar and medium tannins that need time to resolve with pleasant medium finish.
