While I was down in Argentina a few years ago, I fell in love with Cabernet Francs out of Mendoza. Unfortunately, one of the sommeliers I was talking to down there said that only a small selection of Cabernet francs are imported into the states. Notes of Cherry, Cedar, provincial herbs and spice fill your nose. Full bodied red with hints of pine, black plums, licorice and blueberries. Super peppery finish that doesn’t last as long as I would’ve liked but still pleasant. Super fun and complex for a great price.

Smells of an old Tobacco factory after a rainstorm.
Gentle and precise, a flash of bright fruit, Then a touch of saline, a hint of garden vegetable, well rounded acids and and and exhale of vanilla tannins.

Black fruit, cherries, soil, almonds. Amazing glass for the price.

Jan 16th, 2018Smells of a morning in the redwood forests of Northern California. Damp dew upon unfurling fiddleheads.
Complex wine with each petal releasing a different flavor. Mint, berry bramble, hint of Thai basil, Earth, and garden pepper.
It ends with a see saw balancing act of tannin and acid, both coming to the front as often as they can.

2.8. A good Malbec, but it has a not so pleasing aftertaste. This type of wine just doesn't do it for us. On sale for $17.99, regularly $22.99.
