Great spice leads to peppery black and red fruits. Soft acidity and great balance deliver a great CF under $20.

While I love a vegetal cab franc, this one is enjoyable and more floral on the nose. Dark underripe berries to the taste. Soft tannins and acidity. A good bargain wine for sure.

Had the 2011 vintage. Nose: Perfumy yet crisp. Palate: Restrained dark berries, with after-notes of herbs, incense and cedar. Hints of spice.
