$100 less than les pavot but certainly not so on the palate.

Nose muddied with no clear expression, body likewise lacking fruit beyond the expectation for the vintage.

Disappointing. Just not much going on. 47% Cab Franc, 46% Cab Sauv. 14.6 ABV.

Soft, balanced, smooth and full of flavor. Current, oak and tobacco are pronounced

Absolutely love this. Second wine - but more approachable than the first wine. And really good value. Got to try it!
