More showy style CF with generous oak and ripeness. Black raspberry jam, cocoa, baking spice, cassis. Elevated alcohol and modest acidity with hint a minerals make for a plush and soft wine. Lacks a sense of place for me

A very dark expression of Franc with decent amounts of tobacco. Would really shine against food.

Desperate for a nice glass of wine after being holed up at the Doubletree outside of Denver I stagger into Vino Volo. This wasn't what I was looking for.

Decadent version of Cabernet Franc. Less vegetal, with dark berry fruits and chocolate. This style of CF could easily compete and outshine new world Cabernet Sauvignons... yummy

If you like Cabernet Franc you should love this wine. This has a lot to offer. Ripe fruit, chocolate and spices. A good amount of tannins that finished like a champion. Awesome drinking wine.

What a beautiful wine, seamless in its transition from flavor to flavor. Sweet oak and chocolate transition to smoked meat, leather, and pepper, ending with dry rustic tannins. Incredible, and a lesson in structure and nuance.
