  May 2, 2014 - on the nose, you get that hint of Cab Franc from Chinon but its a lot more riper, more fruit then veg or stems for that matter with a big ole dash of black pepper, on the palate tart cherries, complex and tasty, very fruit forward and good in that reguards
  
  Conc: I wanted a wine tonight that was gonna be delicious and was hesitant to open this and yet it was delicious in all ways
