Fresh and vibrant – with nary a splinter of oak used in its production – this is North Fork cab franc at is most transparent and pure. Lean, crunchy red fruits – think raspberry and cranberry – are joined by an earthy, woodsy spicy note and just a bit of the herbal nuance that the best Long Island cabernet franc always has. It relies on acidity rather than tannin for structure.

Strange color for CF, and very extracted...but all the great fruits and flavor you'd expect.

Juicy fruit forward and refreshing. Really enjoyable and reasonably priced. Weird thing on the nose.
