Leafy green herbs, bell pepper, tart raspberry and green tobacco. Wet stone minerality. A bit over extracted but a decent representation nonetheless.

Solid expression of Cab Franc, but doesn't exceed expectations. Crunchy veggie, tart red fruit, hard stone minerality. Definitely quaffable.

Very accessible Chinon. Pretty, juicy raspberries and menthol. Not the greatest Chinon, but good for $.
