Top Notes For

9.0

Nose of wet earth, green bell pepper, grass clippings, violet, and a touch of beef fat.

Lots of floral notes and the palate with good red fruit acidity. Tannins are fairy course and leave a good bit of astringency with nice minerality.

Classic and rustic cab franc which I love. I understand how the green and earth notes could be off-putting for some though.

Hyvä perusviini ruoan kanssa. Hapokkuus huomattava. Tuoksu mieto. Maku ei yllätä hyvällä tai huonolla tavalla. Maku pysyy samanlaisena - jälkimaku huomaamaton.
