plenty of green pepper cab franc typicity here with deep and rich juiciness that’s saved by finishing limestone and acidity.

Natural as hell. Didn't remind me of Cab Franc on the nose but man did it taste like it. Really cool.

My long lost friend...Diablo, meet grass-fed steak...match made in heaven.
Light in color but big ripe meaty red fruit, laser acidity & hint of funk. This wine makes me happy!

Yum, I’ll be drinking this all summer. Kingston Wine Co. says this wine has a national following and I can see why! Tart berries, a little pithy, cab franc fermented with wild yeast.
