Community Tasting Note

  • fournet Likes this wine: 93 points

    November 24, 2017 - This is really nice. I was in Napa in 2014 and tried some 2013 Cab Franc’s in barrel. Many were amazing. Nearly everyone uses their CF for blending with CS, and I unsuccessfully tried to convince winemakers to offer the CF as a single varietal for 2013. So happy Tor offered this. Tannins just a bit too prominent today, but this is enjoyable to drink now. I suspect it will improve over the next 5 years or more as things integrate. NIce, long finish.

    11/26/17, 12:56 PM - So glad to finally see a tasting note on this wine! I 100% agree with you and wish there were more offerings of this varietal. A really good CF can be really special! I’ve only got one bottle, so I’ll be holding it for at least another 3 years before even considering opening it, but I hope there are more reviews to come. Cheers!
