I believe there to be a good amount of gamay in this wine as well. Fruit forward and a little jammy both on the nose and the palette

Too tannic when first opened, but after a night the blackcurrant and spice really came through - balanced by lively acid. Tasty

Great 2007 vintage, a bit too acid at the end of the mouth! Well done cabernet franc. Will be able to taste another bottle.
