2015 Makana Cellars Cabernet Franc

Diamond Mountain more

Released in mid-2021, this breathtaking Cab Franc weighs in at 15.5% abv. (not noticeable). In my view, now is the time to enjoy this beauty from Diamond Mountain, although goodness knows how much life it has left (?). Clear, deep, dark magenta. Medium-bodied. Inviting aromas of blackberry, char, coffee, fig, mint, mocha, raspberry, sage. Bright, luscious fruit with good lift through the mid-palate foretell the joyride to come, as this perfectly balanced and integrated dive finishes without so much as a splash. Kudos to Mr. Gibson. Highly recommended.

This is beautiful right now. Silky smooth but full of flavor. Just enough spice to hold up to pasta with marinara.

That's really good, quaffable juice! Blind, I'd call this a cab sauv. Tannins still solid, but smooth. Wine is open with no decant. Brambly, dark fruits. Long, chalky finish. Leaves you wanting more. Really easy drinking. Not overly complex, but enjoyed it quite a lot.
