Enjoyed. Dry, floral, bell pepper, gravel, sour cherry, dill pickle. Would buy again based on price, will not seek out.

Another brilliant selection from Charles Neal. Perhaps he is my hero.

Beautiful red fruit on the nose with some floral like rose as well. Dry and almost falls flat, I want more out of this wine than it seems to offer. Some ripe cherry notes and mint almost. Left with a bitter flavor that is not good

Fine example. A little too dry for me. Nothing special but a solid cab franc.

Dry. Soft tannins. Works with multiple foods. Ravioli with sausage, filet mignon, and mild cheese (as an appetizer). Enjoy and buy!

Fantastic showing on this 2016. Green bell pepper , white pepper, even hints of cumin, on the nose. Bright cherry , raspberry, and smoked salami, great acidity to balance it out. Love it. 13.5%
