This one is their Merlot-Gamay version. So juicy! Idk if you’d call the vin d’ete wines a line (perhaps if they make a 3rd?), but thus far the 2 I’ve tried have been delicious. Crunchy fruits, bright acidity, and wet earth. This one has a touch of cocoa too.

Natural Cab Franc that is light, fresh, and quaffable with a nice kiss of bret. Earthy and soft. Great wine in a really tough vintage.

Sad I didn't drink this in summer as intended, but happy to have had it anyway. Sparkling acidity and crazy juicy pomegranate character

Great Cab Franc. Good acidity and balance. Well worth a try.

Cool Climate cabernet franc in a tough vintage. Flowers, cherry, cranberry, clove, sage, black pepper and minerals. A good amount of acidity keeps you coming back for more. Lengthy finish of tart cherry and baking spice.

Fine, but didn’t blow me away (given the reputation).

Simple but intriguing. Very tart fruit at first developing into savory notes with very racy acidity. I know it's supposed to be for the summer but it went great with Thanksgiving
