Andrew Will
Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc
Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
A northwestern Cabernet Franc to pair with our second Nor'easter in less than a week...
A lovely wine, great nose of dusty blackberry with pencil shavings, no green notes at all. The palate has solid varietal profile, dark chocolate, raspberry, strawberry (light), medium-light acid with mid level tannins. For $33 this is a great bottle, showing wonderful after only a 30 minute decant.

I wish I had the patience to sit on this wine awhile. It is already a nice wine, but tastes a little green.
