Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 91.5 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 2 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by slimvine on 12/28/2012 & rated 88 points: Cooking spice notes, briary, intense and focused varietal (Cabernet Franc). Ripe and somewhat tannic, dense black fruits, minerals with structure. Ideal with beef. We had it with a grilled Flat Iron steak, would be really good with lamb. Broad on the palate, good depth and length with a spicy finish. (1618 views)
