By memory one of the early vintages from Persephone. Nice but never as good as the Rutherford grapes alas.

Peju Persephone Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2005: Medium-bodied. Excellent balance. Silky integrated tannins. Elegant notes of black fruits, blueberry, cassis, cocoa and the right amount of oak. Smooth lingering finish. 100% estate grown, 100% pure satisfaction! The perfect wine selection for a great evening with friends. Still drinking well & delivering deliciousness after all these years. Great week to all! Cheers🍷
