Staying in South America, Chile to be exact. I have opened a 2012 Calcu Cab Franc. On the nose I am getting notes of black cherry, red plum ripe strawberry, some green peppercorn and gravel. On the palate I can taste cherry, plum, raspberry, asparagus and baking spice. This is a medium bodied cab franc with medium + acidity and medium + sandy tannins. This is a nice Cab Franc just not what I have come to expect in my cab francs.

Arregano, pepper herb aroma, really pleasant. Acidic, cherry flavor, quickly fades.
