Bright purple with violet hue. Juicy raspberry and strawberry notes with background of fall spices. Fuller than expected. Delicious!

6mo concrete aged cab franc. Astringent, tannic sour-cherry gives way to a surprising plushness. Super-flavorful pure fruit backside. Gorgeous color too. Exciting. Drink young and cool, but don’t over-chill or all the magic vanishes.

This one is different.

The bouquet is fresh cracked pepper. The more you dive in to the glass, the more fresh fruit, oranges and melon. Also reminiscent of the vegetal quality of green chartreuse.

Upon tasting, there’s almost a one to one equivalency in bouquet to tasting experience.

Orange, citrus, pepper, dry and fresh. Good cooled or room temperature. Overall solid pick for a night in with a book. Very drinkable.
