A departure in style from some of the other domestic francs I've had recently... Less oak and more vibrancy to the fruit. Fresh raspberries all day with subtle tannins and some viney greenness in the background.

Super clean winemaking. Modern and well made. On the nose, raspberries, slight pepper. In the mouth, red raspberries, bright acid, moderate tannins. Just enough green to know it’s Cab Franc. Medium finish. Well made wine, but a it’s little too modern/clean for me. I can see many people loving it.
