Well aged but still had lots of life ahead. Lovely 18year old cab franc. Everything you would expect

Cannot believe how fresh and lush this is for being 20 years old! But, it is also very light and smooth for a cab franc, probably because of the age (and no oak). Green pepper is subtle, smoky plums. Delish!
