Recently released Paul Hobbs-made cab franc for under 50 bucks! (So new, this is the first review of it on delectable!). While not the most structured wine, this is my kind of Franc: fruit forward with gobs of raspberry and red fruit - not a green pepper to be found. The tannins are decent so give this a little air. There’s also great acidity to this that would make it pair well with food. Easy drinking and medium bodied, I don’t think there is a better QPR for this style of Cab Franc out there. Rating accounts for price. @Shay Aldriedge find this.

Fantastic cab franc second to Repris. Polished 2 bottles off easy. Had these left over from our wine tasting last year.
