Decent for a vin de pays cab franc from loire. For an elegant cheaper cab franc this had good drinkability. It lacked complexity and body though.

Violet ruby red color. Strong red fruit on nose. Some gravel or other earth. High acid. Medium low tannin. Light body. I like the smell more than the taste. Just seems to be missing something. Will see if it opens up with some more breathing.

Does not taste like cab franc. Lack of pepper and tartness that you would expect.
