2016 Jaramillo Vineyards Cabernet Franc

Middle Rio Grande Valley more

12/1/2022 - dlu Likes this wine: NR

A really interesting new world interpretation of Cab Franc. Hints of the usual funk, but in a light, bright style, with low ABV, light colors and textures, and good compatibility with grilled meat over salad, roasted asparagus, and other southwestern staples.

Beautiful almost opaque robe. Nice berry, plum and spice bouquet. Great chewy mouthfeel with drying tannins. It was lovely with a grilled pork tenderloin. Easily the most interesting NM wine I have had.

By the glass at the BA lounge, not a fresh bottle.
We had to try this again ( how many wines one gets to try from Brazil after all ) and indeed we were impressed once again and this wine feels very much old world. Soft, nice soft fruit, light smoky touches, well round and effortless . Really enjoyable and a very good 89 .

Easy modern pinot. Gentle berry compote. Tiny acidic zest. A little starch pastry. All in good order.

Nice job BA Heathrow First Class T3 lounge.

By the glass at the BA lounge from a fresh bottle .
Quite a surprise to have a wine from Brazil and this is a wine to serve blind to confuse the best of tasters. The nose is quite smoky, old world, light dark fruit, soft and elegant. The palate however is a touch short, lacks presence and energy. A conundrum of a wine with two different faces in a way but still a very interesting wine to try. We would have guessed old world . 88

BHA Gala Dinner at the Kingsway Hall Hotel - limited note taking.
My first (from memory) Brazilian wine. Peach and apply fruit flavours with a good refreshing core acidity keeping it dry. Decent weight, I suspect good value - bonus point applied.
Commercial and sound.

11/27/2014 - Zweder wrote: 82 points

Monthly Tasting Group LTB 2014-09; South America. (By IL): In the bouquet white fruits, oaky flavors, geranium and a touch of menthol. On the palate not so very expressive in this stage, but there are some white fruits, a firm amount of grapefruit acidity. Overall an ok, but just above average wine.

Well, this was a pleasant surprise: have never had such a blend before, and certainly not from Brazil! The PG element is the dominant one, crisp and refreshing; the Riesling adds a bit of weight and flavour in the mid palate. All in all, a very good aperitif or fish wine. Well worth a try if you see it.

VISUEL: Rubis foncé.... même très foncé
OLFACTIF: intensité moyenne, fruit unidimensionnel
GUSTATIF: Mais la bouche s'éclate ! fruité, large avec une superbe fraîcheur et une générosité qui plaît d'emblée. Et cela vient du BRÉSIL ! Je n'avais pas d'attente particulière autre qu'une curiosité pour ce cabernet-sauvignon. Il sait plaire et il est bien fait.
ENSEMBLE: Super ! On peut épater la galerie avec 14$

1/27/2012 - Cabfrancophile wrote: 88 points

R did not like, said it was flawed. Definitely a bit low in acid and buttery in texture, but nothing off to me. Very fine new world Cab Franc. Dry, earthy, textured and mid-weight. Aromas of tobacco, black cherry, tar, baking spice and violet. Fruit driven and fat upfront, then finishes earthy with soft tannins.

Not a proper note, as this was a restaurant purchase, bought to go with the remarkably good Pacific Rim cuisine of Australasia in Manchester. I was not getting on with their i-pad wine list and so, when I stumbled across a Brazilian pinot gris-riesling blend, the wine geek in me saw no reason to go any further. I later spotted that this was one of their by-the-glass house wines. It was a pleasant drink, entirely appropriate to the food, but was a bit lacking in character. Inoffensive and never got in the way.

A little bit disappointing than previous vintage of Miolo Pinot Noir I tried. More one dimensional and full on the fruit but somewhat lacking in structure / complexity. Hoped for more but perhaps it is the Famliy Vineyards label that means this is a more basic showing of their Pinot....
