Excited to try this 2015 again in a couple years, but it is mighty tasty right now. No green, all rustic reds

Picked this one up on a trip to the Finger Lakes a few years back. Definitely one to decant or let open up before drinking. Enjoyed it once it had a chance to breath.

Got this from our visit to the Finger Lakes region for our anniversary. Much lighter than what I remember. Surprising for a Cab Franc that it's more translucent red in color, light bodied, red berries, and a slight "new" green hint. Grows on you. Balances a heavy meal actually.

Pretty decent. Medium to light bodied. Just ok.

A decent Cab Franc with plenty of red fruit, some crushed herbs silky tannins, integrated oak and ample acidity.
