I love my Cabernet Franc and this 2013 Field Recordings Cabernet Franc from Paso Robles. The breakdown on this wine is 88% Cabernet Franc, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 4% Merlot.
On the nose is pleasant fruit notes of strawberry and red raspberry. There are also notes of roasted jalapeño and crushed gravel.
On the palate I find green bell pepper, nice herbal notes, red plum, strawberry, and baking spice.
The mouth feel is supple and full. Medium + Acidity more on the + side and Medium + sandy tannins with a nice long pleasing finish.
A very nice Cab Franc from Paso Robles that is pleasing all around. If you you are a fan of Cab Franc this would be one to look for at a reasonable price.
