Red and black fruit, dark earth, brett on nose but clean on palette. Old school chinon 🙌

Great single-vineyard Cabernet Franc from the Loire Valley AOC Chinon. Nice herby notes, lively acidity, and grippy tannins. #Chinon #Loire #KermitLynch

Barnyardy on the nose. On the palate, quite acidic and tannic but still balanced. May benefit of a little more aging. Smoky and earthy with a black fruit undertone. Really nice overall.

Aggressive on leather and wet stones on the nose, but it drinks impressively smooth with low tannins
