Deep ruby color. Aromas of plum, pepper, dark chocolate and graphite. Dry wine, gorgeous black fruit, baking spices and a Forrest floor/ mushroom finish.

It's been a year since our trip to Napa (thanks Amazon Photos), so kind of an anniversary wine. A great example of Cab Franc with dark fruit, spice, graphite, well integrated oak, full body, and a long lingering finish. Have another of the same and will be good to hold onto for a few years. A great winery to visit, producing great wine.
