Very nice and the extra time in bottle benefited the drinking experience. Stewed prunes and cranberries and a nice tannic hold.

Very cool to taste one with even a little bit of age.
Smells like a briar patch. Super deep baked fruit. Funky.

Drinking very well! Good fruit, earth, notes of cocoa, Coca Cola, watermelon jolly rancher mid palate. Incredible in my opinion!

Particularly well made Cab Franc, modern style meaning a compact palate with oak and black fruit flavors . Far from Chinon or Long Island CF and closer to Uco Valley style in Mendoza

Best leaving gift. Knockout Oregon cab franc. Intense fruit but fresh good acidity + soft tannins. Never had anything close to this in U.S.

2008 vintage. Love this one, fruit is excellent, sorry that they didn't bottle more of this one.
