This is really well done. Screams blueberry, but also some nice violets, lingonberry and clove notes. Great to drink now.

2012 - Dense wild berry fruits, BlackBerry and a little brambly, with some spice on the nose. You'd mis the earth if you didn't search. Moderate tears and the meniscus is minimal. Great density throughout the glass and carries all the way to the edge. Palate starts heavy black cherry and finishes to a fine red Bing cherry. Tannins start on the mid palate and coast for the duration. Acid & tannins harmonize. I could say you can drink now, or hold on for a more silky texture. Love this wine. Lots of purity. Perfect example of Cab Franc in my opinion. Opens up very well. Opened 7/31/15

Quite tannic, still very young - hold off on drinking for another 2-3 years at least! Dark fruit galore, deep, strawberry jam, black licorice.
