This a really fun wine with a lot of quirkiness. All the dark berries that one would expect but not a fruit bomb thanks to the Cab Franc. I swear I tasted peat. Going to pick up a few more bottles.

Very well rounded and smooth! A good nose of deep plumb and mild spices. Persists well on the palate with very subtle tannins, a hint of white pepper and dark chocolate! Very nice
