Ruby colored with beautiful aromas of strawberry and green pepper accompanied by tobacco and floral notes. Savory on the palate with striking minerality and a tannic structure which should give it a long life although it’s approachable now . A Peter Weygandt selection made by Marc Plouzeau from a parcel of 150+ year-old ungrafted vines in Touraine that escaped phylloxera in the 19th century. 12.5% ABV. $40.

Depth and density, while still being recognizably a cab franc. A really special wine.

Re-upping my Delectable game. Lighter bodied than expected, but with some serious heavy black licorice/tar funk. A little too bright at the moment. Definitely for the AFWE crowd.
