Beautiful Cab Franc nose, bright tight low tannin, substantial fruit.

So much deeper color and richer flavor than 2018!

So fun to try this side-by-side with the 2019. Unusually light for this varietal but delicious! Cranberries and tangy red fruit.

Goes well with camping in a yurt and climbing a fire tower

We're new to the Hudson River region and I'm delighted to find this local wine that has the spicy, full flavors I love from places like Argentina and Arizona. Dark berries and tobacco make this a delicious treat and the price is reasonable as well.

Really enjoyed this. Quite a classic nose with perhaps just a bit more dark red fruit coming through than a cab franc from the Loire. Mouth filling and delicious with a nice finish. Nice.

I’ve never had a Hudson River Valley wine before. This was very good. Peppery nose and tart, cranberry-like finish.
