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

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.

This was great, very fresh, unfiltered. Cherry and a peppery taste. Glad we’re on a streak of great wines here.
