I couldn't take listening to these two so called candidates for another minute in their first national debate. So I have turned on "Pitch Perfect " and cracked open one of my favorite varietals Cabernet Franc the 2013 Lange & Reed North Coast Cabernet Franc. I have got to get that bad taste in my mouth from this National Debate and nothing better then a Cabernet Franc.

The nose brings out notes of sweet strawberries, ripe plum, raspberry puree, and wet gravel.

The first sip shows medium body with strawberry, wild raspberries, ripe cherry, green bell pepper, dried herbs and dry crushed gravel.

There is a silky smooth mouth feel with medium acidity, medium smooth tannins and a medium pleasing finish. A very easy pleasurable drinker.

Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷

A lot more full-bodied than I expected. Lots of dark fruit, pepper, flowers and spice. Medium-full bodied and weight and texture. Lots of wine for the buck.
