First glass in Bordeaux at an outdoor cafe. Was interested in trying this Fronsac and did not disappoint. The Cab Franc really comes through even though it is only 10%. Dense, black currant and cherry really pop in this textured offering.

At the Spectrum wine direct. Didn't rate. Smells nicer than the 2010. Taste changes. Still has the depends. Very dark.
