Extraordinary complexity. Zesty bell pepper is followed by bright candied maraschino cherries and precedes a serious but subtle crushed black pepper finish. No brainer for the price.

100% cab franc. An aromatic, floral nose with red fruits and some herbal tones. No
Evidence of oak. Medium/low tannins, but good length and decent acidity. Decent ripeness keeps the wine fresh and the vegetal notes in check. A well-balanced and pretty Cabernet franc.

Chris gave me some homework. Cab Franc. Small nose. Interesting hints of various red fruits. However, the finish tastes like dust. I can't say I have ever set out to taste dust but that is the word that pops into my brain.
