Dark berry fruit blackberry black cherry with sweet tobacco spice and dark chocolate spice they don't make this every year and this is the last vintage till possibly 2014. A nice amount of dark berry fruit with a touch of green herbs. A good bit of tannins on the finish a nicely balanced rough tannins but has good fruit to match. Finish 40+

Probably my favorite wine of the night or close to it. Amazing representation of a cab franc

On the riper side of Cab Franc while still maintaining balance. Polished and pleasing. Well integrated and finely crafted juice.
