This was super weird on opening, some funk that blew off with some air. Drank over a few hours, ago went through several phases. Odd experience. Not delivering on typical cab franc typicity, oakier. But enjoyable California style wine. Highish alcohol is noticeable. Kept asking— will this get better with bottle age. Hard to tell. Well made, but seems the winemaking style results in a wine playing against type in a way that isn’t quite clicking.
