Often people equate understatement and restraint with ‘simplicity.’ Bummer for them, more for the the rest of us.
This is a lovely blend of Cab Franc & Merlot that brings forward the best of both varietals without relying on tannic ‘power.’

Hey wonderful and interesting blend that comes off as being muted and stoic but is really quite pleasant could benefit from slightly higher acidity but it’s really a wonderful showing at this price

Can Franc/Merlot Blend. Franc is from "the Rocks" in the Walla Walla Valley and is prettier than you might think
