Warm baking spice with touches of savory on the nose, the mouth is pure fruit with soft tannin and bright acidity.

Oh yeah. Real deal Cab Franc. Raspberry, black cherry, meaty olives and touch of tobacco. Supremely dry, but tannins are small, and finish is long and lovely.

Light and fruity, nice drinker. It's almost more Pinot than cab franc.

Light wine, I'd say it would be perfect for a picnic.

Someone once told me, if you find a cab franc.. Get it! It doesn't disappoint!

Dry, big nose of crushed blackberry. Lemon peel on the finish. A bit tannic in a good way.
