9.0

100% Cab F. Ripe sweet black cherry, earthy, autumnal, smoky with well integrated minty, green pepper notes. There's good depth behind the Cab Franc funkiness. Medium to full, light chewy tannins, balanced acid, more plummy, red fruit on the palate, with black p, cedar, tobacco, earthy notes on the finish. Good depth
