More fruity than last night cab franc and less green pepper. A little green pepper on the nose and a certain softness. The taste has a soft round raspberry ish note with a tiny tinge of the green pepper at the end. But more vegetal than green pepper. A pretty and lovely wine. Might get another and will definitely get more loire cab franc.
I feel like this style of wine is easily not super popular with people that expect a big fruity wine it’s softer and elegant and lean. Like a quote paired down Bordeaux. If someone had this with mostly experience from new world wines they probably would feel like it was watered down. Food for thought.
