November 28, 2015 - Drank a small glass at a wine fair from a newly opened bottle. Still young and can gain a point or two with age.

February 12, 2013 - 2013 Gambero Rosso Tre Bicchieri tour (Union Station, Chicago, IL): Nose: This really shows off the elegance of cab franc with tones of herbs, dark red cherries, hi-toned spices, florals, and dark red fruits.
Taste: Medium/full bodied with medium/high acidity and chewy tannins. There is some real youth in the structure and the tones of herbs, dark red cherries, spices, and floral tones.
Overall: This is on the youthful side, but it also has real nice depth and a savory quality as well.1 person found this helpful Comment
