Aromas and flavors of apple, lemon, flint, quince, white peach and pineapple. The wine has subtle acidity that balances the opulent fruit and a wonderful silky texture on the palate. 100% cab franc made with very careful pressing to preserve a pale lemon color. Delightful with seafood.

Jul 14th, 2018Really round and bright with tons of tart fruit. Round pear, light jasmine. Lovely med + acid, some grapefruit and lots of ripe apple on the palate. Just very cool. My first non skin contact cab franc. The body is there. Definently an interesting wine.
