Gadino Cabernet Franc, Virginia #VAwine. Surprisingly well done red in a cool, wet vintage. Lighter style with ripe cherry, cranberry intertwined with wet leaves and green herbal notes. Light and fresh finish. Preferable to serve slightly chilled for a summer sipper red. #wine #sommelier #cabernet #cabernetfranc

Smoke on the nose in this medium body wine with a cranberry or raspberry taste to it. Could use more time but it’s drinkable.

Smokey on this medium body wine with a taste of jam to it. Needs to age longer.
